This study aims to examine the relationship of cellular inflammation biomarkers across different sample types in asthma patients.
Evaluated cellular biomarkers in blood, sputum, and bronchial biopsy from asthma participants.
Used bronchoscopy for tissue collection and staining to identify cell types.
Analyzed the relationship using linear regression models to assess fit levels.
Macrophages from subepithelial compartments show a very good fit (R2 = 0.797; P = 0.0012).
CD8 T cells exhibit good fits across compartments (R2 = 0.578; P = 0.017 and R2 = 0.549; P = 0.022).
Blood eosinophils poorly predict lung inflammation severity, indicating TBBX measurements are more accurate.
