Objective: We previously reported that the nonpeptide tachykinin NK 2 receptor antagonist SR48968 (saredutant) significantly inhibits neurokinin A-induced bronchoconstriction in patients with asthma. MEN11420 (nepadutant) is a bicyclic peptide tachykinin

A novel model of IgE-mediated passive pulmonary anaphylaxis in rats. [PDF]
Mast cells are central effector cells in allergic asthma and are augmented in the airways of asthma patients. Attenuating mast cell degranulation and with it the early asthmatic response is an important intervention point to inhibit bronchoconstriction ...

Drug‐induced respiratory depression in FDA Adverse Event Reporting System for 20 years
Abstract Background Drug‐induced respiratory depression (DIRD) is a common and highly prevalent condition in clinical practice, necessitating early prevention and intervention. This study aimed to identify the association between specific medications and DIRD, providing evidence‐based insights for clinical risk assessment and management.

Verapamil Induces Calcium Influx in the Trachea
Verapamil, a Ca2+entry blocker, can induce bronchorelaxation and bronchoconstriction. The mechanism of verapamil-induced bronchoconstriction is poorly understood.

Abstract Respiratory acidosis and alkalosis are two of the four main acid‐base processes encountered in clinical practice. These two processes are tightly balanced by breathing. Identification and management of respiratory acid‐base disorders are important for clinicians, particularly when caring for patients with underlying pulmonary and neurological ...
