Brief description Asthma is a chronic disorder where airways are remodelled, or thickened, resulting in poor lung function. Airway remodelling is a consequence of long-term inflammation after multiple episodes of asthma. As the current drugs to treat remodelling have side effects, the aim of this grant is to investigate a novel anti-inflammatory strategy to reverse the development of airway remodelling by increasing the anti-inflammatory protein - MKP-1.
