The mitogenic effect of testosterone and 17 beta-estradiol on airway smooth muscle cells
(2011)
Airway disease distribution and/or severity exhibit sex differences suggesting that sex hormones are involved in the respiratory system physiology and pathophysiology. The implication of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) ...
TNF alpha induces expression of HIF-1 mRNA and protein but inhibits hypoxic stimulation of HIF-1 alpha transcriptional activity in airway smooth muscle cells
(2013)
Airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) participate in tissue remodeling characteristic of airway inflammatory diseases like asthma. Inflammation and hypoxia pathways are often interconnected and the regulatory subunit of the ...
Azithromycin reduces the viability of human bronchial smooth muscle cells
(2010)
The macrolide antibiotic azithromycin has an antiproliferative and autophagic effect on rabbit tracheal smooth muscle cells (SMCs). The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of azithromycin on human bronchial ...
Epithelium-dependent regulation of airways smooth muscle function. A histamine nitric oxide pathway
(1998)
THE airway epithelium is responsible for the production of a number of arachidonic acid and nonprostanoid inhibitory factors. Epithelium synthesises nitric oxide (NO) which may be important in regulating the function of ...
