Role of Type 2 Cytokines in Asthma and COPD
Dr Mario Castro explains how type 2 cytokines play a crucial role in airway remodeling and inflammation in asthma and COPD, impacting patient outcomes.
Type 2 Cytokines Have Multiple Critical Roles in BP That Contribute to Inflammation and Itch
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Prof. Enno Schmidt highlights the role of type 2 cytokines involved in the dysregulated Type 2 immune responses that contribute to inflammation and subsequent itch in bullous pemphigoid.
Mucus Plugging as a Potential Target in Asthma Management
Join Dr. Celeste Porsbjerg as she explores the mechanisms underlying mucus plugging development as mucociliary clearance. She explains how type 2 cytokines—particularly IL-13—impair this clearance mechanism, leading to mucus plugging, and worsened asthma outcomes.
ERS 2025 | Less Flare, More Function: Recognizing the Full Spectrum of COPD Patient Outcomes
Join Drs. Nicola Hanania, Surya Bhatt, and Celeste Porsbjerg for a session exploring the burden of COPD in patients with type 2 inflammation and review key cytokine pathways and Phase 3 data on emerging biologic therapies.
Type 2 Inflammation: Links With Severe Uncontrolled CRSwNP
In this video soundbite from the ERS-ISIAN 2025 symposium, Dr. Vibeke Backer discusses how Type 2 inflammation drives severe, uncontrolled CRSwNP. It covers key immune cells and biomarkers (e.g., IL-4, IL-5, IL-13, TSLP), global prevalence differences, and the importance of symptom tracking and targeted therapies.
Type 2 Cytokines Have Multiple Critical Roles in BP That Contribute to Inflammation and Itch
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Eric Simpson outlines why early, targeted control of type 2 inflammation may modify the course of atopic dermatitis by addressing upstream drivers of barrier dysfunction, dysbiosis, and itch.
ERS 2024 | A Breath of Fresh Air: A Greater Understanding of COPD With Type 2 Inflammation
Join experts Henrik Watz, Mona Bafadhel, and Alberto Papi for an educational symposium on the link between underlying drivers of COPD with type 2 inflammation and cumulative patient burden, exploring the role of type 2 cytokines, and current and emerging therapies.
The Role of IL-4 and IL-13 in CSU Pathogenesis
Dive into the complex pathophysiology of chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU), where mast cell degranulation drives the hallmark signs and symptoms. This interactive infographic elucidates how key type 2 cytokines, specifically IL-4 and IL-13, contribute to mast cell activation, immune cell trafficking into the skin, and neuronal sensitization in CSU, which ultimately leads to the release of mediators like histamine that cause wheals, angioedema, and itch.
Pathways Driving Chronic Airway Remodeling in Asthma
See how type 2 inflammation underlies remodeling processes in asthma.
Type 2 Inflammation Contributes to Itch and Fibrois in PN
Join Dr. Kwatra outlining the micro itch cycle involving type 2 cell polarization and cytokines that directly affect fibroblasts to cause more immune dysregulation in PN.
In Chronic Pruritic Skin Diseases, the Neuroimmune Axis Involves Dynamic Interactions Between Type 2 Inflammation and Sensory Nerves
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Brian Kim describes the dynamic neuroimmune interactions in chronic pruritic skin diseases, emphasizing how type 2 cytokines and sensory nerves actively influence both itch perception and tissue inflammation.
Epidemiology and Pathophysiology of AD in Children
In this expert interview video focusing on topics from the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria, Dr Christine Bangert discusses the epidemiology of AD in children and the role of type 2 cytokines in driving the pathophysiology of the disease
