Journal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open, 2021 Objective Albuterol is a β2‐agonist and causes an intracellular shift of potassium from the interstitium. Whole‐body hypokalemia is known to cause skeletal muscle weakness, but whether this occurs as a result of hypokalemia from the intracellular shift ...

Exhaled Breath Condensate Detects Baseline Reductions in Chloride and Increases in Response to Albuterol in Cystic Fibrosis Patients [PDF]
Clinical Medicine Insights: Circulatory, Respiratory and Pulmonary Medicine, 2013 Impaired ion regulation and dehydration is the primary pathophysiology in cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease. A potential application of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) collection is to assess airway surface liquid ionic composition at baseline and in ...

Long-acting β2 agonist (LABA) with a long-acting muscarinic receptor antagonist (LAMA) promotes human airway smooth muscle (HASM) relaxation and circumvents β2 adrenergic receptor tachyphylaxis [PDF]
Respiratory ResearchTo fill the gap in the knowledge between clinical studies and pre-clinical mechanistic studies using combined LABA/LAMA therapy, we hypothesized that the combination is more effective in attenuating excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling compared to ...
