[Given the profound airway oxidant stress we have previously observed in children with severe asthma, we sought to (1) quantify TGF-β1 protein and mRNA gene expression in the airways of children with mild-to-moderate and severe atopic asthma and (2) determine the relationship of airway TGF-β1 concentrations to oxidant burden (ie, lipid peroxidation), T(H)2-mediated eosinophilic inflammation, and airflow limitation.].
