NHLI's Joulia Lab made a short animation explaining what goes wrong in the lungs during asthma! 🫁📽️

Check out how immune cells respond to threats & how asthma treatments work. With thanks to @WellcomeTrust & Acteria

We found in 2 studies, metformin (cheap, available, oral) associated with 30% lower asthma attacks. Adding GLP-1 had 40% further effect. This was not from better glycaemic control or weight loss! Seen in T2 low & high asthma! @BoheeLEE4 @DrAzizSheikh @ImperialNHLI @aluk_research
Metformin was associated with a lower rate of asthma attacks, with further reductions with the use of GLP-1RA. ja.ma/3UQckFp
