Obesity, Metabolic Dysregulation and the Airway Epithelium in Asthmatics (NCT03215836)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The objective of this pilot study is to determine whether obesity and metabolic syndrome are in fact synergistic in relation to airway nitric oxide (NO) biology. To do so, the investigators want to determine how obesity and the metabolic syndrome relate to metabolism in bronchial airway epithelial cells and the nasal epithelium.
