Mucociliary transport in trachea of patients with cystic fibrosis.

Mucociliary tracheal transport rates were measured in 20 patients with cystic fibrosis, in whom these rates ranged from 0 to 12.8 mm/min. The patients were divided into 3 roughly equal groups on the basis of their transport rates. (1) Those in whom no abnormality in mucociliary transport was detected in the trachea; (2) those in whom normal transport rates were measured but in whom abnormalitie...

Nasal mucociliary transport is impaired at altitude.

There have been a number of anecdotal reports of rhinitis and nasal obstruction occurring at altitude. To quantify these reports, we investigated nasal obstruction and mucociliary transport in a group of healthy volunteers trekking to Mount Everest Base Camp, Nepal, altitude 5,300 m. Nasal obstruction was estimated by subjective scoring and mucociliary transport was determined by the saccharin ...

Increased arginase activity in cystic fibrosis airways.

RATIONALE Airway nitric oxide concentrations are reduced in cystic fibrosis (CF). Arginases compete for L-arginine, the substrate of nitric oxide synthesis. OBJECTIVES We hypothesized that increased arginase activity may be one factor contributing to nitric oxide deficiency in CF. MEASUREMENTS We therefore studied sputum arginase activity, exhaled nitric oxide, and pulmonary function in pat...

Liquid secretion inhibitors reduce mucociliary transport in glandular airways.

Because of its possible importance in cystic fibrosis (CF) pulmonary pathogenesis, the effect of anion and liquid secretion inhibitors on airway mucociliary transport was examined. When excised porcine tracheas were treated with ACh to induce gland liquid secretion, the rate of mucociliary transport was increased nearly threefold from 2.5 +/- 0.5 to 6.8 +/- 0.8 mm/min. Pretreatment with both bu...

Mucous solids and liquid secretion by airways: studies with normal pig, cystic fibrosis human, and non-cystic fibrosis human bronchi.

To better understand how airways produce thick airway mucus, nonvolatile solids were measured in liquid secreted by bronchi from normal pig, cystic fibrosis (CF) human, and non-CF human lungs. Bronchi were exposed to various secretagogues and anion secretion inhibitors to induce a range of liquid volume secretion rates. In all three groups, the relationship of solids concentration (percent nonv...
