Mechanistic modelling of allergen-induced airways disease in early life by Hannah J. Pybus, Prakrati Dangarh, Man Yin Melanie Ng, Clare M. Lloyd, Sejal Saglani, Reiko J. Tanaka

“…In this study, we developed an in silico model describing the pulmonary immune response to a common allergen, house dust mite, to investigate its downstream impact on the pathophysiology of asthma, including airway eosinophilic inflammation, remodelling, and lung function. We hypothesised that altered epithelial function following allergen exposure determines the onset of airway remodelling and abnormal lung function, which are irreversible with current asthma therapies. …”
