Interleukin-37 inhibits inflammation activation and disease severity of PM2.5-induced airway hyperresponsiveness

We have shown in the past studies that fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure increases airway hyperresponsiveness and leads to lung inflammation damage. Interleukin (IL)-37 plays a inhibitory role in inflammation activation and maintenance. However, the function of IL-37 in the above processes ke...
