Muco-ciliary differentiation of nasal epithelial cells is decreased after wound healing in vitro.
BACKGROUND Epithelial damage and modifications of cell differentiation are frequent in airway diseases with chronic inflammation, in which transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) plays an important role. The aim of this study was to evaluate the differentiation of human nasal epithelial cells (HNEC) after wound healing and the potential effects of TGF-beta1. METHODS Basal, mucus, and cil...
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 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...

and IL-13, and the T-helper type 1 cytokine interferon (IFN)act differently in regulating airway inflammation and subepithelial fibrosis. The production of transforming growth factor (TGF)by airway epithelium and lung mesenchymal cells may be an important event in airway inflammation and remodeling. We hypothesized, therefore, that Th2 and T-helper type 1 cytokines may differentially regulate T...
متن کاملNasal Muco-ciliary transport time alteration: efficacy of 18 B Glycyrrhetinic acid
Background Mucociliary clearance is the main self-clearing system of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses.This is a very important means of non specific defence against continuous organic and inorganic contamination conveyed by air. It works by trapping particles and microorganisms in the mucus and then by transporting the mucous film to the pharynx where it is eliminated with a cough or swal...
