Increased numbers of eosinophils and increased concentrations of plasma proteins have been found in the airways of patients with mild asthma. We used an intact guinea pig trachea model to investigate the role of eosinophil peroxidase (EPO) in altering the function of the airway epithelial barrier. E

The effects of altering the availability of sodium ions (Na+) on contractility of the guinea-pig isolated trachealis was examined using regimens which are reported to inhibit Na+/K+ ATPase activity (ouabain), Na+/H+ exchange (amiloride, ammonium ion (NH4+)) or Na+/Ca2+ exchange (reduced extracellula
Intravenous administration of mequitamium iodide (LG 30435) prevented the increase of tracheobronchial vascular permeability induced either by antigen challenge or by exogenous histamine in the guinea-pig, while it was ineffective against PAF, serotonin or capsaicin. These findings indicate that meq
SUMMARY: Isolated guinea-pig tracheae exposed to conditioned air mucosally and to circulating saline solutions serosally have been subjected to an osmotic gradient between saline and airway surface and to a range of drugs. Experiments were conducted to examine the mechanisms that regulate airway sur
