Asthma
- 1. Asthma - Pathogenesis Dr Tamil Nila II year postgraduate Department of Pathology
- 2. What is Asthma? • Heterogenous disease • Chronic airway inflammation • Expiratory airflow obstruction • Symptoms • Wheezing • Shortness of breath • Chest tightness • cough
- 3. Major subtypes • Atopic Asthma • Type 1 hypersensitivity • Childhood • Environmental allergens • Positive family history • High total serum IgE levels • Serum radioallergosorbent tests • Non Atopic asthma • No evidence of sensitization • Less common family history • Associated with • Viral respiratory infections • Air pollutants • Cold
- 4. Major subtypes • Drug – Induced asthma • Aspirin sensitive asthma • NSAIDs • Associated with utricaria • Occupational asthma • Fumes • Dusts • Chemicals • Even minute quantities are sufficient • Repeated exposure Inhibition of COX Arachidonic acid not metobolised Less Prostaglandin E2
- 5. Pathogenesis • Th2 responses, IgE and Inflammation • Genetic susceptibility • Environmental factors
- 6. Th2 responses, IgE and Inflammation Th2 cells IL -4 Ig E production IL – 5 Eosinophil recruitment IL – 13 Endobronchial Secretions Th 17 IL – 17 Neutrophil recruitment
- 7. Triggering of Asthma
- 8. Early Phase Bronchoconstriction Increased mucus production Vasodilation Vascular permeability
- 9. Late Phase Recruitment of Leucocytes - Eosinophils - Neutrophils - More T cells
- 10. Mediators Definite Leucotrienes C4, D4 & E4 Acetylcholi ne IL -5 Galectin 10 Minor role Histamine Prostagland in D2 PAF Others IL – 4 IL – 13 TNF
- 11. Genetic susceptibility • Chromosome 5q • Gene cluster encoding for IL 3, IL 4, IL 5, IL 9, IL 13 & IL 4 receptor • Class II HLA alleles • Genes encoding • IL 33 • Thymic stromal lymphoprotein
- 12. Environmental factors Industrial Air pollutants Hygiene hypothesis
- 13. Exaggerated response Airway Inflammation Airway Dysfunction Airway remodelling
- 14. Normal vs Asthmatic Airway
- 15. Gross • Hyperinflated lungs • Occlusion of bronchi by thick, tenacious mucus plugs
- 16. Microscopy • Airway wall thickening • Eosinophilic inflammation • Goblet cell hyperplasia • Muscle hypertrophy • Sub basement membrane fibrosis • Increased vascularity • Increased size of submucosal glands
- 17. BAL Wash findings Curschmann spirals Charcot leyden crystals
- 18. References • Robbins and Cotran pathologic basis of disease • Autopsy pathology – A manual and atlas, Andrew J. Connolly • Comprehensive Cytology, Marluce Bibbo
