1. Inactivation of capsaicin-sensitive nerves reduces pulmonary remodeling in guinea pigs with chronic allergic pulmonary inflammation
Pulmonary remodeling is an important feature of asthma physiopathology that can contribute to irreversible changes in lung function. Although neurokinins influence lung inflammation, their exact role in the extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling remains to be determined. Our objective was to investigate whether inactivation of capsaicin-sensitive nerves modul

2. Within-breath analysis of respiratory mechanics in asthmatic patients by forced oscillation
INTRODUCTION: The within-breath analysis of respiratory mechanics by the monofrequency Forced Oscillation Technique (mFOT) is of great interest in both physiopathology studies and the diagnosis of respiratory diseases. However, there are limited data on the use of this technique in the analysis of asthma. This study evaluates within-breath mechanics of asthm

3. Avaliação da resposta inflamatória pulmonar e do transporte mucociliar em modelo de inflamação alérgica pulmonar: modulação pelo estresse induzido pela natação forçada / Evaluation of pulmonary inflammatory responses and mucociliary transport in a model of chronic allergic inflammation: modulation by stress induced by forced swimming
Background: It has increasing evidence linking the role of stress in the onset of asthma exacerbation and in the maintenance of asthmatic crises, as well as the importance of mucus production and the mucociliary clearance in the asthma physiopathology. Objectives: So, we consider relevant to evaluate in guinea pigs with pulmonary chronic allergic inflammatio

4. Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma: clinical manifestations of the same sickness? / AssociaÃÃo rinite alÃrgica/asma: prevalÃncia e impacto na gravidade da SÃndrome AlÃrgica RespiratÃria CrÃnica
Introduction - The allergic rhinitis/asthma association in the same individual, has been referred to since the time of Galeno, and is related to a more serious presentation called Chronic Respiratory Allergy Syndrome. However, there is still no consensus among the scientific community. The objective of this review was to observe at first hand, the more accep

5. Caracterização das fases imediata e tardia da resposta inflamatória de tecido pulmonar periférico de cobaias sensibilizadas / Comparison of early and late responses to antigen of sensitized guinea pigs parenchymal lung strips
The peripheral lung parenchyma has been studied as a component of the asthmatic inflammatory response. During induced constriction, tissue resistance increases in different asthma models. Approximately 60% of the asthmatic patients show early and late responses. The late response is characterized by more severe airway obstruction. In the present study, we ev
