Inhaled fluticasone propionate (FP) therapy decreases inflammation and sub-basement membrane thickness in asthmatic airways. Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) in lung transplant recipients (LTRs) involves progressive airway fibrosis and obliteration. Therefore, augmented immunosuppression may be of some benefit in treating BOS. In this study, we examined the effect of 3 months of treatment with high-dose inhaled FP on the concentrations of 2 fibrogenic factors, transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta(1) and beta fibrogenic growth factor (bFGF) in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid from clinically stable LTRs.
