Effects of morphine on human nasal cilia beat frequency in vitro.
Using human nasal cytological brushings, we have investigated the effects of morphine on ciliary function by measurement of cilia beat frequency in vitro, and we have also determined opioid receptor binding in these specimens. We obtained ciliated samples from seven volunteers, and measured cilia beat frequency using the transmitted light technique during exposure to morphine 10 mumol litre-1 f...
متن کاملEffect of Cilia Beat Frequency on Muco-ciliary Clearance
Background: The airway surface liquid (ASL), which is a ï‚uid layer coating the interior epithelial surface of the bronchi and bronchiolesis, plays an important defensive role against foreign particles and chemicals entering lungs.Objective: Numerical investigation has been employed to solve two-layer model consisting of mucus layer as a viscoelastic fluid and periciliary liquid layer as a New...

متن کاملInfluence of Neopterin on Ciliary Beat Frequency of Human Nasal Epithelial Cells in vitro
Acute infectious diseases of the respiratory tract are regularly associated with increased concentrations of neopterin in serum and/or urine. Most likely, the pteridine compound is not only a marker of an activated cellular immune system but may exert distinct biochemical functions in the process of infections as well. In response to viral contact, macrophages located in the nasal mucosa may re...
متن کاملThe beat pattern and beat frequency of cilia and flagella
in many kinds of eukaryote are controlled by changes in intracellular Ca2+ concentration. Ciliary movement in Paramecium comprises two kinds of ciliary strokes, the effective stroke and the recovery stroke, and shows metachronal coordination (Machemer, 1972). When Paramecia meet an obstacle, their cilia reverse the direction of their beat, allowing the organism to swim backwards (Jennings, 1906...
