Summary

Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD) are common diseases, which tend to even increase in many countries. Both from a clinical and a pathophysiological point of view, this is an important issue. However, an understanding of the relationship between the complex array of cells and mediators involved in asthma and COPD is not yet fully dissected which makes difficult to find a specific and sensitive panel of biomarkers that can reflect intensity of these pathological processes and can help to predict the individual outcome.
