“…In contrast, few studies have focused on airway remodeling associated with ASM, which results in chronic airway obstructive changes. Here, the ASM is very crucial, considering its role in controlling the secretion of inflammatory cytokines, extracellular matrix (ECM)/remodeling, and other growth mediators [7,40,41]. Kisspeptins (Kp) belong to a family of neuropeptides and originate from a common precursor, preprokisspeptin, to produce smaller amidated cleaved peptides of different amino acid chain lengths: Kp-10, Kp-13, Kp-14, and Kp-54 [14,16,17,42].…”
