Synergistic interactions of melatonin and glucocorticoids in alleviating allergic airway inflammation
Melatonin, when combined with corticosteroids, may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for allergic asthma, potentially improving asthma control through modulation of inflammation and circadian rhythm regulation. Further studies are needed to fully elucidate the mechanisms underlying this synergy and to evaluate the long-term therapeutic benefits.
