BACKGROUND: Intraluminal contributor(s) to airflow obstruction in severe asthma are patient-specific and must be evaluated to personalize treatment. The occurrence and functional consequence of airway mucus in the presence or absence of airway eosinophils remain undetermined.
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to understand the functional consequence of airway mucus in the presence or absence of eosinophils and to identify biomarkers of mucus-related airflow obstruction.
METHODS: Mucus plugs were quantified on CT scans, and their contribution to ventilation heterogeneity (using MRI ventilation defect percent [VDP]) was evaluated in 27 patients with severe asthma. Patients were dichotomized based on sputum eosinophilia such that the relationship between mucus, eosinophilia, and ventilation heterogeneity could be investigated. Fractional exhaled nitric oxide (Feno) and related cytokines in sputum were measured.
RESULTS: Mucus plugging was present in 100% of asthma patients with sputum eosinophils and 36% of those without sputum eosinophils (P = .0006) and was correlated with MRI VDP prebronchodilator (r = 0.68; P = .0001) and postbronchodilator (r = 0.72; P < .0001). In a multivariable regression, both mucus and eosinophils contributed to the prediction of postbronchodilator MRI VDP (R2 = 0.75; P < .0001). Patients with asthma in whom the mucus score was high had raised Feno (P = .03) and IL-4 (P = .02) values. Mucus plugging correlated with Feno (r = 0.63; P = .005).
CONCLUSIONS: Both airway eosinophils and mucus can contribute to ventilation heterogeneity in patients with severe asthma. Patients in whom mucus is the dominant cause of airway obstruction have evidence of an upregulated IL-4/IL-13 pathway that could be identified according to increased Feno level.
