<p>Obesity is one of the factors associated with the severity of asthma. Obesity is associated with aggravation of the pathophysiology of asthma, including exacerbations, airway inflammation, decreased pulmonary function, and airway hyperresponsiveness. The present review addresses the characteristics of asthma with obesity, focusing especially on the heterogeneity caused by the degree of type 2 inflammation, sex differences, the onset of asthma, and race differences. To understand the severity mechanisms in asthma and obesity, such as corticosteroid resistance, fatty acids, gut microbiome, and cytokines, several basic research studies are evaluated. Finally, possible future therapies, including weight reduction, microbiome-targeted therapies, and other molecular targeted therapies are addressed. We believe that the present review will contribute to better understanding of the severity mechanisms and the establishment of novel treatments for severe asthma patients with obesity.</p>
