Visualizing Asthma-causing Immune Cells At Work

Immune cells known as eosinophils have a central role in causing asthma. Researchers have now developed new approaches to noninvasively visualize in real-time eosinophil responses in the lungs and airways of mice with a disease that mimics asthma. It is hoped that these approaches might be exploited to improve our ability to diagnose asthma and assess the efficacy of treatments for the disease.
