Journal ArticleDOI

Increased nitrosothiols in exhaled breath condensate in inflammatory airway diseases.

TL;DR: It is shown that RS-NOs are detectable in exhaled breath condensate of healthy subjects and are increased in patients with inflammatory airway diseases and in current smokers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nuclear localisation of p65 in sputum macrophages but not in sputum neutrophils during COPD exacerbations

TL;DR: NF-kappaB appears to be activated in sputum macrophages but not in spUTum neutrophils during exacerbations of COPD, as measured by immunocytochemistry and nuclear staining for p65.
Journal ArticleDOI

Elevation of Exhaled Ethane Concentration in Asthma

TL;DR: Exhaled ethane is elevated in asthma, reduced in steroid-treated patients, and correlates with NO and airway obstruction, and may be a useful noninvasive marker of oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exhaled nitric oxide from lung periphery is increased in COPD

TL;DR: COPD severity was correlated with an increased Calv,NO regardless of the patient's smoking habit or current treatment and Measurements of nitric oxide at multiple expired flows may be useful in monitoring inflammation and progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and the response to anti-inflammatory treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Repression of Cyclooxygenase-2 and Prostaglandin E2Release by Dexamethasone Occurs by Transcriptional and Post-transcriptional Mechanisms Involving Loss of Polyadenylated mRNA

TL;DR: A major role for post-transcriptional mechanisms in the dexamethasone-dependent repression of COX-2 that require de novo glucocorticoid receptor-dependent transcription and translation is indicated.
