Farahi, N., Loutsios, C., Tregay, N. et al. (16 more authors) (2018) In vivo imaging reveals increased eosinophil uptake in the lungs of obese asthmatic patients. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 142 (5). 1659-1662.e8. ISSN 0091-6749
Abstract
Using radiolabeled eosinophils coupled with SPECT/CT the authors quantify eosinophilic inflammation in the lungs of patients with asthma and focal pulmonary eosinophilic inflammation, revealing important differences in eosinophil kinetics between obese and non-obese asthmatics.
