Abstract
3-Bromotyrosine and 3,5-dibromotyrosine levels reflect treatment effects in asthma and support previous findings that SABAs impair the anti-inflammatory effects of inhaled corticosteroids. In addition to eosinophil numbers and eosinophil cationic protein levels, these modified tyrosine residues provide useful information about the inflammatory state of the airways.
