Abstract
The article provides an overview of modern concepts of induced sputum analysis and a description of the methodology and protocols for the collection of induced sputum in adults and children. This paper describes the cellular composition of induced sputum in healthy people and in patients with asthma in detail, analyses the significance of the sputum eosinophil count as a prognostic and diagnostic criterion and the role of other cells, such as neutrophils, macrophages, basophils. In this article, we review a number of asthma biomarkers of inflammation and remodeling of the airways in asthma, which can be determined in sputum (anaphylatoxin C3a, clusterin, periostin). In addition, we summarize recent data about asthma phenotypes and describe the possibilities of using induced sputum analysis as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool for personalized anti-inflammatory therapy for asthma.
Keywords: Asthma, bronchial mucosa, sputum, periostin, anaphylatoxin C3a, respiratory tract infections.

Exposure to PM2.5 components is associated with respiratory diseases
Through continuous research on the relationship between risk factors and health, it has been found that air pollution, especially atmospheric particulate matter pollution, has become one of the main sources of global disease burden. From 1990 to 2022, the concentration of atmospheric particulate matter pollution has increased by more than ...read more
