背景:哮喘气道发生包括炎症和重塑在内的病理改变。然而,它们对气道高反应性(AHR)组成部分的相对贡献尚不清楚。目的:试图将AHR划分为离散的免疫介导和结构重塑成分,我们对最大呼吸系统阻力、气道反应性和气道敏感性的发生、进展和持续进行了详细的时间过程。方法:小鼠暴露于持续持续的过敏原持续时间增加评估气道功能,形态学和炎症。结果:过敏原暴露导致AHR所有指数的升高,并在慢性过敏原暴露后持续至少4周
Background: Pathologic changes, including inflammation and remodeling, occur in the asthmatic airway. However, their relative contribution to the components of airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) remains unclear.Objective: Attempting to delineate AHR into discrete immune-mediated and structural remodeling components, we performed a detailed time course of the development, progression, and persistence of maximal respiratory system resistance, airway reactivity, and airway sensitivity. Methods: Mice exposed to increasing durations of persistent allergen were assessed for airway function, morphometry, and inflammation.Results: Allergen exposure resulted in increases for all indices of AHR that persisted for at least 4 weeks after chronic allergen exposure (P
