“…This is possible because of the presence of free thiols (sulfhydryl groups). Therefore, NAC decreases the sputum viscosity in vitro [Sheffner, 1963;Davis et al 1975] and acts as a mucolytic. Second, it plays a mucoregulatory role as it can decrease sputum hypersecretion in experimental rat models [Rogers et al 1989].…”

“…Dauert diese Entzündungsreaktion jedoch länger als 48 h nach der Insemination an, besteht der Verdacht, dass die Stute an einer belegungsinduzierten Endometritis (persistent mating induced endometritis, PMIE; Troedsson 1999, Causey 2006, LeBlanc 2010 leidet. Durch eine verminderte Aktivität des Myometriums, eine zu geringe Öffnung der Zervix und einen erhöhten Einstrom von PMN neigen betroffene Stuten zu einer Retention von Flüssigkeit und Fremdmaterial in der Gebärmutter (Troedsson 1999, Causey 2006 (Sheffner 1963, Gores-Lindholm et al 2009). Es wird bereits als zugelassenes orales Prä-parat (Equimucin ® , Cp-Pharma, Burgdorf, Deutschland) erfolgreich bei der sekretolytischen Therapie von chronischobstruktiven Lungenerkrankungen beim Pferd eingesetzt (Breuer und Becker 1983, Keller et al 2001) und hat zudem antioxidative Eigenschaften (Ollivier et al 2003, Rötting et al 2003, Haffner et al 2003 (Rojer und Aurich 2010).…”

“…Originally, effects on mucous viscosity [57] and mucociliary clearance were declared [58,59]. Although the compounds were originally marketed as mucolytic agents, an effect on mucociliary clearance or mucus impaction in the small airways has never been fully demonstrated.…”
