Similar to the poor asthma control model, application of apical compression did not alter the viral RNA copy numbers following infection (Fig. 4E), there was also no induction of LL-37 and SLPI expression following RV-A1 infection (Supplemental Fig. S4, C and D; https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.22350988). This evidence concerns the gene SLPI and asthma.
