Increased smooth muscle contractility or reduced smooth muscle mechanical loads could account for the excessive airway narrowing and hyperresponsiveness seen in asthma. These mechanisms were investigated by using an allergen-induced porcine model of airway hyperresponsiveness. Airway narrowing to electric field stimulation was measured in isolated bronchial segments, over a range of transmural ...
Endurance athletes show an increased prevalence of airway hyperresponsiveness. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the long-term effects of training on airway responsiveness, inflammation and epithelial damage in swimmers and cold-air athletes. In total, 64 elite athletes (32 swimmers and 32 cold-air athletes), 32 mild asthmatic subjects and 32 healthy controls underwent allergy skin p...
Airflow obstruction has been described in workers who experienced symptoms after acute exposure to chlorine. Persistent bronchial hyperresponsiveness has also been assessed, but mainly in case studies. In this cross-sectional study, we have assessed the relationship between inhalational accidents ("puffs") involving chlorine and persistent symptoms as well as hyperresponsiveness in 239 out of 2...
AIMS To analyze the changes in the prevalence of asthma, bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR) and allergies in elite athletes over the past years, to review the specific pathogenetic features of these conditions and to make recommendations for their diagnosis. METHODS The Task Force reviewed present literature by searching Medline up to November 2006 for relevant papers by the search words: as...
Six patients with asthma (American Thoracic Society (ATS) criteria), maintained on inhaled beta 2-agonists alone, were treated with inhaled corticosteroid (budesonide 400 micrograms b.d.) for a period of three months. Prior to steroid therapy, baseline spirometry, bronchodilator response and bronchial hyperresponsiveness were documented and endobronchial biopsies were obtained for immunopatholo...
The pathophysiological characteristics of bronchial asthma consist of chronic inflammation of airways, airway hyperresponsiveness, and bronchoconstriction. Studies have shown that T helper type 2 (Th2) cytokines produced by both T cells and mast cells in the airway contribute substantially to the initiation of inflammation in both experimental and human bronchial asthma. GATA-3 is a transcripti...
