Airway remodeling is a complex process, and controlling it appears to be a key for halting the progression of asthma and other obstructive lung diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the anti‐remodeling properties of extracts from transformed and transgenic L. sibiricus roots with overexpression of AtPAP1 transcriptional factor. Our study shows for the first time that transformed AtPAP1 TR extract from L. sibiricus root may affect the remodeling process.
