Influence of the sodium transport inhibition by amiloride on the transmesothelial resistance of isolated visceral sheep peritoneum
(2005)
The peritoneal mesothelium is a barrier to ion transport in peritoneal dialysis. In the present study, we used Ussing chamber experiments to investigate the effect of amiloride on the transmesothelial electrical resistance ...
In vitro responsiveness of human post-menopausal myometrium to endothelin-1 and ovarian steroids
(2005)
It has been shown in vitro that endothelin 1 (ET1) differentially affects the human myometrial contractility according to the hormonal profile of women. Our purpose was to test the hypothesis that ovarian steroids influence ...
Enhancement of the transmesothelial resistance of the parietal sheep peritoneum by epinephrine in vitro: Ussing-type chamber experiments
(2005)
The peritoneal mesothelium constitutes an ion transport barrier that is taken advantage of in peritoneal dialysis. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of epinephrine on the electrical transmesothelial ...
Resting tension effect on airway smooth muscle: the involvement of epithelium
(2005)
We studied the influence of resting tension (RT) on rabbit tracheal smooth muscle (TSM) contractions induced by acetylcholine or KCl as well as the role of epithelium and the endogenously produced nitric oxide, prostanoids ...
Functional similarities between pleura and the renal proximal tubule - membrane and cellular considerations
(2005)
The small amount of liquid that, under physiological conditions, is presented in the pleural cavity has been the focus of extensive research for more than a century. However, there are still unanswered questions and ...
Therapeutic value of antidepressants in asthma
(2005)
Laboratory and clinical data provide evidence that a biological linkage exists between asthma and depression. Cytokines are key molecules in both diseases. They promote allergic reaction as well as depressive symptomatology. ...
