ABSTRACT
Understanding the pathogenesis of different phenotypes of asthma, including glucocorticoid-dependent and glucocorticoid-resistant asthma, is crucial for the development of effective treatments. Autophagy, a fundamental cellular process involved in cell homeostasis, has been implicated in asthma, although the exact mechanisms remain unclear. Recent studies have identified autophagy activation in eosinophilic, neutrophilic, and paucigranulocytic asthma, providing novel insights into the disease. This comprehensive review examines the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis and treatment of asthma, with a focus on various cell types. The goal is to uncover potential therapeutic targets and innovative treatment modalities to improve patient outcomes in clinical settings.
