Abstract
Phenotypic heterogeneity in severe asthma has been described in terms of the nature and intensity of granulocytic inflammation in the airways, but few studies have directly compared various methods of airway sampling. We sought to examine the relationships between mediators of inflammation in endobronchial biopsies, induced sputum, and peripheral blood in a large cohort of severe asthmatics.
