| infectious chlamydia pneumoniae is associated with elevated interleukin-8 and airway neutrophilia in children with refractory asthma. | neutrophilic asthma is thought to be less responsive than eosinophilic asthma to anti-inflammatory therapies including corticosteroids. chlamydia pneumoniae has been implicated in asthma, possibly by induction of interleukin (il-8). we hypothesized that il-8 is increased in the bronchoalveolar lavage (bal) fluid from children with asthma and c. pneumoniae. | 2010 | 21155094 |
