Proteomics of bronchial biopsies: Galectin-3 as a predictive biomarker of airway remodelling modulation in omalizumab-treated severe asthma patients
Highlights • First report of proteomic analysis applied to severe asthma biopsies obtained before and after 12 month omalizumab treatment. • Identification of galectin-3 as predictive biomarker of bronchial basal membrane modulation upon omalizumab treatment. • Galectin-3 is a stable marker up 12 mo...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • First report of proteomic analysis applied to severe asthma biopsies obtained before and after 12 month omalizumab treatment. • Identification of galectin-3 as predictive biomarker of bronchial basal membrane modulation upon omalizumab treatment. • Galectin-3 is a stable marker up 12 months after treatment, confirmed by staining the biopsies. • The interactome analysis showed also reduction of myosins and actins after omalizumab treatment. • First report in humans of reduction of the musculaire component of bronchi due to a therapeutic intervention. |
