Influenza A virus infection and cigarette smoke impair bronchodilator responsiveness to β-adrenoceptor agonists in mouse lung

open access: yesClinical science, 2016
The present study has shown that the bronchodilator effectiveness of β-adrenoceptor agonists is diminished in CS and influenza A virus-induced lung disease and has identified the need for the development of novel bronchodilators for these diseases.

Cardiac arrhythmias in patients with bronchial asthma

open access: yesМедицинский совет, 2022
Introduction. According to modern data, bronchial asthma (BA) is an independent risk factor for the development of cardiac arrhythmias (CA), and the use of long-acting β2-agonists (LABA) in basic therapy may further increase the risks of CA.Aim. To study
