1. Particles in small airways : mechanisms for deposition and clearance and pharmacokinetic assessments of delivered dose to the lung
Sammanfattning : BACKGROUND: Knowledge about lung deposition and clearance from airways of inhaled particles/drugs are essential for evaluation of health effects of inhaled pollutants and to achieve optimal drug dose to the lung. The primary defence mechanism in the conducting airways is the mucociliary clearance (MCC). LÄS MER
2. Studies of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction to define protective mechanisms in asthma
Sammanfattning : Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) occurs in the majority of asthmatics following vigorous exercise. EIB is caused by a loss of water from the airways creating a hyperosmolar environment in the tissue that in turn triggers the release of bronchoconstrictive mediators. LÄS MER
3. Mast cell activation in response to osmotic and immunological stimulation with focus on release of eicosanoid mediators
Sammanfattning : Mast cells are important in asthma and other inflammatory diseases. Subjects with asthma have been found to have an increased number of mast cells in their airway smooth muscle and this was related to airway sensitivity. LÄS MER
