A form of bronchial disorder with three distinct components: airway hyper-responsiveness (RESPIRATORY HYPERSENSITIVITY), airway INFLAMMATION, and intermittent AIRWAY OBSTRUCTION. It is characterized by spasmodic contraction of airway smooth muscle, WHEEZING, and dyspnea (DYSPNEA, PAROXYSMAL). [from

Bronchial asthma is the most common chronic disease affecting children and young adults. It is a complex genetic disorder with a heterogeneous phenotype, largely attributed to the interactions among many genes and between these genes and the environment.
Asthma-related traits include clinical symptoms of asthma, such as coughing, wheezing, and dyspnea; bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) as assessed by methacholine challenge test; serum IgE levels; atopy; and atopic dermatitis (Laitinen et al., 2001; Illig and Wjst, 2002; Pillai et al., 2006). See 147050 for information on the asthma-associated phenotype atopy. [from

Netherton syndrome is a disorder that affects the skin, hair, and immune system. Newborns with Netherton syndrome have skin that is red and scaly (ichthyosiform erythroderma), and the skin may leak fluid. Some affected infants are born with a tight, clear sheath covering their skin called a collodion membrane. This membrane is usually shed during the first few weeks of life. Because newborns with this disorder are missing the protection provided by normal skin, they are at risk of becoming dehydrated and developing infections in the skin or throughout the body (sepsis), which can be life-threatening. Affected babies may also fail to grow and gain weight at the expected rate (failure to thrive). The health of older children and adults with Netherton syndrome usually improves, although they often remain underweight and of short stature. After infancy, the severity of the skin abnormalities varies among people with Netherton syndrome and ... more 9.

Aspergillus species are ubiquitous in nature and cause a wide spectrum of diseases, including saprophytic colonization of existing cavities (aspergilloma), allergic asthma, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis, and disseminated disease associated with high mortality rates in patients with hematologic malignancies and recipients of solid organs and stem cell transplantations. Immunocompetent and nonatopic individuals are relatively resistant to infection, and disease occurs in the setting of host damage. Association of persistent inflammation with intractable infection is common in nonneutropenic patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, as well as in allergic fungal diseases. The pathophysiology underlying Aspergillus infection highlights the bipolar nature of the inflammatory process in infection, in which early inflammation prevents or limits infection, but an uncontrolled response may oppose disease eradication (summary by Cunha et al., 2010).

CFTR-related disorders include cystic fibrosis (CF) and congenital absence of the vas deferens (CAVD). Cystic fibrosis affects epithelia of the respiratory tract, exocrine pancreas, intestine, male genital tract, hepatobiliary system, and exocrine sweat glands, resulting in complex multisystem disease. Pulmonary disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in CF. Affected individuals have lower airway inflammation and chronic endobronchial infection, progressing to end-stage lung disease characterized by extensive airway damage (bronchiectasis, cysts, and abscesses) and fibrosis of lung parenchyma. Meconium ileus occurs at birth in 15%-20% of newborns with CF. Pancreatic insufficiency with malabsorption occurs in the great majority of individuals with CF. More than 95% of males with CF are infertile as a result of azoospermia caused by absent, atrophic, or fibrotic Wolffian duct structures. CAVD occurs in men without pulmonary or gastrointestinal manifestations of CF. Affected men have azoospermia and are thus infertile. [from
