Obesity-Related Asthma: Immune Regulation and Potential Targeted Therapies

Figure 1

Possible connections among lipid metabolism, obesity, and obesity-related asthma. This figure is divided into two parts: the upper part about pathogenesis and the lower part about potential targeted therapy. The part on pathogenesis demonstrates a few major effects of immune regulators. The other introduces the corresponding possible targeted therapy including SREBPs, miRNAs, and the DPP-4 inhibitor.
