Guinea-pig tracheal responsiveness in vitro following general anaesthesia with halothane.
Halothane and isoflurane induce potent bronchodilation during general anaesthesia and have been used successfully during status asthmaticus. The aim of this study was to determine whether airway hyporesponsiveness was prolonged after halothane administration. Sixteen guinea-pigs were submitted for 2 h to either 1.5% halothane in oxygen or 100% oxygen, and were killed 24 h later to elicit isomet...
متن کاملPossible Relaxant Effects of Thymoquinone on Guinea Pig Tracheal Chain
In the previous studies the relaxant, anti-cholinergic (functional antagonism) and anti-histaminic effects of Nigella sativa have been demonstrated on guinea pig tracheal chains. To elucidate the main substance responsible for the relaxant effect of this plant, the effect of thymoquinone, one of the main constituent of Nigella sativa was examined in this study. The bronchodilatory effects of th...
متن کاملEffect of vitamin C on tracheal responsiveness and pulmonary inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease model of guinea pig
Introduction: In the present study, the prophylactic effect of vitamin C, as a potent anti-oxidant, on tracheal responsiveness to methacholine and ovalbumin, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid white blood cell (WBC) count and differential count, and also lung pathology in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) -guinea pigs (cigarette exposed guinea pigs) were examined. In addition, the relax...
متن کاملAntihistaminic Effect of Bunium persicum on Guinea Pig Tracheal Chains
In a previous study, the relaxant and anticholinergic (functional antagonism) effects of Bunium persicum (B. persicum ) have been demonstrated on guinea pig tracheal chains. To elucidate the other mechanisms responsible for this relaxant effect, the inhibitory effect of this plant on histamine H1 receptors was examined in this study. The antihistaminic effects of aqueous and macerated extracts,...
متن کاملTracheal Superfused Guinea Pig Lungs
The effects of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor captopril and the neutral endopeptidase (NEP) inhibitors thiorphan and SCH 32615 on the changes in airway opening pressure (Pao) and the recovery of offered peptide were studied after intratracheal administration of substance P (SP) and neurokinin A (NKA) in isolated guinea pig lungs superfused through the trachea. Pao changes and...
