The effect of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was examined on baseline and on methacholine- and phenylephrine-stimulated smooth muscle tone, mucus volume and lysozyme outputs, and epithelial albumin transport of the ferret whole trachea in vitro. H2O2 (10 microM-10 mM) had no significant effect on tracheal
With the ferret liquid-filled trachea in vitro, intraluminal methacholine (MCh), phenylephrine (PE) and histamine (Hist) increased smooth muscle tone and salbutamol (Salb) decreased tone. Lysozyme output was increased by intraluminal MCh and PE. Albumin transport into the lumen was not altered by in
