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.
Airway Remodeling in Type 2 Asthma is Driven by IL-4 and IL-13
Dr. Reynold Panettieri discusses how IL-4 and IL-13 drive airway remodeling in type 2 asthma.
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.
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.
What role does IL-4 and IL-13 have in driving Type 2 inflammatory skin disease (AD, PN, CSU)?
Dr. Oscar Palomares explains that IL-4 and IL-13 are crucial cytokines in type 2 inflammation, playing both unique and overlapping roles, including T cell expansion and contributing to clinical symptoms in chronic diseases.
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
Itch in Chronic Inflammatory Skin Diseases: Histaminergic and Nonhistaminergic Mechanisms and Role of IL-4 as a Central Orchestrator in Promoting Neuronal Sensitization
In this soundbite video from the April 2025 ADVENT Forum in Lisbon, Portugal, Dr. Brian Kim explores the histaminergic and nonhistaminergic mechanisms of itch, highlighting how type 2 cytokines like IL-4 serve as central orchestrators of neuronal sensitization and immune–nervous system cross-talk.
Type 2 Inflammation and Its Role in Atopic Dermatitis
In this video of the October 2024 ADVENT symposium at EAPS in Vienna, Austria, Dr Christine Bangert reviews the epidemiology, clinical presentation, and differential diagnoses of AD in children, as well as the inflammatory processes driven by type 2 cytokines that lead to AD and its atopic comorbidities
Barrier disruption in AD and the development of environmental and food allergies
Dr. Casale discusses the critical role of barrier disruption in atopic dermatitis
Spotlight on Type 2 Inflammation in the Upper and Lower Airways
In this video soundbite from the EAACI 2025 symposium, Dr. Zuzana Diamant explains pathophysiological mechanisms underlying asthma and CRSwNP, and how type 2 inflammatory cytokines drive airway remodelling in patients with severe asthma. Additionally, patients with co-existing asthma and CRSwNP have a higher type 2 inflammatory burden than patients with asthma alone.
