Mitochondrial metabolic dysfunction in airway epithelial cells promotes goblet cell metaplasia and more severe asthma.
Type 2 (T2) inflammation is a defining feature of asthma and associated with epithelial dysfunction, including goblet cell metaplasia and ciliary loss. Here, we investigated whether T2 inflammation and associated 15 lipoxygenase-1 (15LO1) activity alters mitochondrial metabolism in airway epithelial cells (AECs) and co...
