Cover Story: Humans connect with the natural world through the immune interface of mucous membranes. Pollen, dust, pollutants, and other particulate matter can, therefore, cause severe types of asthma, especially in children. Although its prevalence has increased rapidly in the industrialized world, a cure for asthma remains elusive, even if new biologic-based drugs purport to decrease asthmatic exacerbations as well as treat comorbid obstructive pulmonary diseases. Rapid and precise evaluation of this nascent class of therapeutics will provide a roadmap to relief through customized therapy while emerging technologies, such as deep sequencing and -omics, promise a wealth of biomolecular information that may prove crucial in detailing both the pathogenesis of, and curative treatment for, asthma.
