Abstract:
Asthma,a chronic inflammatory disease of respiratory system,is characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness,chronic airway inflammation,mucus secretion,and airway remodeling.Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) are a kind of multifunctional stem cells,which have the ability of self-renewal and multi-directional differentiation.They are involved in a variety of physiological processes,such as immune response,antigen presentation,inflammatory response,and cell migration.MSCs plays a key role in the pathogenesis of bronchial asthma,while the underlying mechanism remains to be studied.MSC are a potential target for the treatment of bronchial asthma.This paper reviews the mechanism of MSC in the treatment of asthma.
