To the Editor: Bronchial asthma is a respiratory disease with pathological features that mainly comprise changes in airway inflammation, airway remodeling, and airway hyperresponsiveness. During an asthma attack, a large number of inflammatory genes are activated, and the expression of inflammatorymediators increases, eventually leading to airway hyperresponsiveness and remodeling. Nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) is composedof transcriptionally active dimers of the Rel family, which is closely related to the expression of inflammatory genes during an asthma attack.
