A Comparison of the Molecular Pharmacological Properties of Current Short, Long, and Ultra-Long-Acting β<sub>2</sub>-Agonists Used for Asthma and COPD. [PDF]
ABSTRACT β‐agonists have been used in asthma for 120 years. There are two recent changes: ultra‐long‐acting agonists for COPD and new asthma guidelines recommending formoterol/ICS inhalers phasing out short‐acting salbutamol inhalers. Few studies directly compare the molecular pharmacological properties of short (salbutamol, terbutaline, fenoterol ...

Assessment of drug permeability using a small airway microphysiological system. [PDF]
BackgroundThere is a need to reliably predict the permeability of inhaled compounds during the development of new and generic drugs. A small airway microphysiological system (MPS) that can recapitulate the pulmonary air-liquid interface (ALI) with ...

Respiratory maze: An anatomical variant of tracheal bronchus. [PDF]
Tracheal bronchus is a rare congenital abnormality of bronchial variation arising from trachea. Special attention should be paid during intubation as it can potentially obstruct the bronchus. Key message This case highlights an uncommon anatomical variation in the airway known as Tracheal bronchus, which can sometimes lead to recurrent pneumonia. It is

Abstract Cigarette smoking can cause damage of airway epithelial cells and contribute to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Honokiol is originally isolated from Magnolia obovata with multiple biological activities. Here, we investigated the protective effects of honokiol on cigarette smoke extract (CSE)‐induced injury of BEAS‐2B cells.
