IL-5 is a key cytokine mediator in asthma pathophysiology. Many are aware of the effects of IL-5 on eosinophils contributing to the type 2 inflammation that drives the majority of moderate to severe asthma. New evidence points to a broader and more complex role of IL-5 and its influence on other effector cells including epithelial cells, plasma cells, and fibroblasts. Join us for a review of IL-5 immunology specifically highlighting the multiple effects that contribute to airway remodeling and disease progression.
