気管支喘息患者の血清コーチゾール値について. 副腎皮質ホルモン投与および年齢との関連 [PDF]
Serum cortisol levels were examined in 94 patients with bronchial asthma in relation to dose of glucocorticoids and age. 1. The level of serum cortisol was significantly lower in group A patients, treated with glucocorticoids (prednisolone of 5mg/day or ...

Bronchospasm and its biophysical basis in airway smooth muscle
Airways hyperresponsiveness is a cardinal feature of asthma but remains unexplained. In asthma, the airway smooth muscle cell is the key end-effector of bronchospasm and acute airway narrowing, but in just the past five years our understanding of the ...

Leukotriene C4-Synthesis Deficiency
A leukotriene C4-synthesis deficiency, a new inborn error of eicosanoid metabolism characterized by hypotonia, microcephaly, failure to thrive, and retarded development, is described in an infant who died aged 6 months after a rapidly progressive course ...

Mrgprs on vagal sensory neurons contribute to bronchoconstriction and airway hyperresponsiveness
Asthma, accompanied by lung inflammation, bronchoconstriction and airway hyper-responsiveness, is a significant public health burden. Here we report that Mas-related G protein-coupled receptors (Mrgprs) are expressed in a subset of vagal sensory neurons ...

Linking ventilation heterogeneity quantified via hyperpolarized He-3 MRI to dynamic lung mechanics and airway hyperresponsiveness [PDF]
Advancements in hyperpolarized helium-3 MRI (HP 3He-MRI) have introduced the ability to render and quantify ventilation patterns throughout the anatomic regions of the lung. The goal of this study was to establish how ventilation heterogeneity relates to

Effects of Inhaled Brevetoxins in Allergic Airways: Toxin–Allergen Interactions and Pharmacologic Intervention [PDF]
During a Florida red tide, brevetoxins produced by the dinoflagellate Karenia brevis become aerosolized and cause airway symptoms in humans, especially in those with pre-existing airway disease (e.g., asthma).

In athletes, a secure diagnos is of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is dependent on objective testing. Evaluating spirometric indices of airflow before and following an exercise bout is intuitively the optimal means for the diagnosis; however,

Clinical effects of spa therapy were examined in 150 patients with asthma in relation tobronchial hyperresponsiveness and patient age. 1. The efficacy rate of spa therapy was larger as the patient age was higher: the rate was 73.3% in patients under age ...
