Abstract:
Bronchial asthma is a heterogeneous chronic inflammatory disease involving multiple immune cells and structural cells.It is characterized by airflow limitation,airway hyperresponsiveness,and airway remodeling,with complex pathogenesis.In recent years,the research on exosomes has developed rapidly.Exosomes are small vesicles secreted by a variety of cells and are naturally found in various biological fluids,with stability and biocompatibility.Exosomes from different cells are involved in pathophysiological processes such as airway inflammation,remodeling,and hyperresponsiveness through specific mechanisms and play a regulatory role in multiple links in bronchial asthma.This review focuses on the role of exosomes from different cells in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma.
