Chitooligosaccharides suppress airway inflammation, fibrosis, and mucus hypersecretion in a house dust mite-induced allergy model by Yun-Ho Kim, Chan-Ho Park, Ju Myung Kim, Yeo Cho Yoon

“…Samples of right lung tissue obtained from the experimental animals were used for gene and protein expression analysis, whereas samples of contralateral lung tissue were used for immunohistochemical analysis.ResultsCOS regulated Th1 immunity by inhibiting major cytokines, including inflammatory tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interleukin-6 (IL-6), in BEAS-2B cells. In the HDM-induced allergic respiratory model, COS suppressed the infiltration of inflammatory cells around the airways and inhibited the mRNA expression of Th1 immune cytokines in lung tissues, while also reducing the expression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB)-related proteins. …”
