Severe asthma in horses is associated with increased airway innervation
Background Altered innervation structure and function contribute to airway hyperresponsiveness in human asthma, yet the role of innervation in airflow limitation in asthma in horses remains unknown. Hypothesis To characterize peribronchial innervation in

P65 Homodimer Activity in Distal Airway Cells Determines Lung Dysfunction in Equine Heaves
peer reviewedNuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) activity, which is a key regulator of inflammatory gene expression, is increased in bronchial epithelial cells from horses suffering from heaves (a hypersensitivity-associated inflammatory condition of the ...

Effects of 8-epi-Pgf2alpha on isolated bronchial smooth muscle of healthy and heaves-affected horses
peer reviewed8-Epi-PGF2alpha, a prostaglandin-like compound generated by oxidative stress, has been shown to be an in vitro bronchoconstrictor in airways from healthy laboratory animals and healthy humans, but it has never been studied in diseased ...
