[Airways remodeling in bronchial asthma--heparin as a potential factors suppressing the remodeling]
Abstract
In this study we have described current opinions concerning the pathogenesis of airways remodeling in bronchial asthma. The participation of different cells and their mediators in airways remodeling induction and multiplication have been presented as well as the potential role of heparin in suppression of this processes.
