Intracellular action of magnesium in airways smooth muscle relaxation in rabbit
(1999)
This study was designed to examine whether magnesium has an intracellular action on airways smooth muscle contraction. Tracheal muscle strips were obtained from six male rabbits and perfused in a bathing chamber. The muscle ...
The role of nitric oxide in the pathophysiology of bronchial asthma
(1998)
OBJECTIVE: To study in vitro the role of nitric oxide (NO), in the pathophysiology of asthma observing the effections of a NO-donor such as sodium nitroprusside, a calcium (Ca) channel inhibitor nifedipine or neurotransmitter ...
BENIGN POSTPARTUM PLEURAL EFFUSION
(1995)
The conditions of labour appear to favour the development of pleural effusion, The frequency of postpartum pleural effusion was investigated in this study using thoracic ultrasonography. Thirty one postpartum and 22 healthy ...
Peripartum pleural effusion
(1997)
Electrophysiological and mechanical properties of isolated rabbit heart papillary muscles and their correlation with nitric oxide (NO) and oxygen free radicals in hypovolemic shock blood plasma
(1997)
We investigated the electrophysiological and contractile responses of isolated rabbit heart papillary muscles, to plasma from the blood of rabbits suffering severe hypovolemic shock (SP) and compared the production of ...
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 non-prostanoid inhibitory factors. Epithelium synthesizes nitric oxide (NO) which may be important in regulating the function of ...
