Bronchial tree of the human embryo: Categorization of the branching mode as monopodial and dipodial.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Some human organs are composed of bifurcated structures. Two simple branching modes-monopodial and dipodial-have been proposed. With monopodial branching, child branches extend from the sidewall of the parent branch.

Caveolin-1: Functional Insights into Its Role in Muscarine- and Serotonin-Induced Smooth Muscle Constriction in Murine Airways

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
An increased bronchoconstrictor response is a hallmark in the progression of obstructive airway diseases. Acetylcholine and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT, serotonin) are the major bronchoconstrictors.
