Inflammatory Pattern of the Bronchial Mucosa in Patients with Asthma with Airway Hyperresponsiveness to Hypoosmotic Stimulus

Abstract: Positive reaction of the bronchi to distilled water inhalation in asthmatics is associated with significant stimulation of the respiratory epithelium desquamation against the background of increased content of eosinophilic and neutrophilic leukocytes in induced sputum, predomination of eosinophil and neutrophil cytolysis, and lower activity of myeloperoxidase in leukocyte granules (in comparison with the parameter in patients with a negative response to bronchostimulation). Enhanced cytolysis and destruction o… Show more

“…The percentage of neutrophils in the sputum of healthy controls ranges from 0-30% [28, 29], the etiology of which may be shear stress in the mucosa during the induction process, influence of specific resident microbiota or prior exposures to environmental agents. For example, higher sputum neutrophil counts were documented in ex-smokers [28].…”

“…The percentage of neutrophils in the sputum of healthy controls ranges from 0% to 64% [ 16 , 17 ], the aetiology of which may be shear stress in the mucosa during the induction process, the influence of specific resident microbiota or prior exposures to environmental agents. Airway neutrophilia may be associated with pollution [ 18 ], smoking [ 19 ], workplace agents [ 20 ], acute infections [ 21 ], chronic airway infections ( e.g.…”

“…Usually, a bronchoscope is inserted into a specific lung of the bronchus, injected with saline at 37 ° C, and then aspirated under low negative pressure. Scanning microscopes use narrow focus and high-energy electron beams to scan samples [2]. The interaction between the beam and the substance stimulates various physical information, which is collected, enlarged and imaged to achieve the purpose of characterizing the microscopic morphology of the substance [3].…”
