Abstract
We evaluated the relationship between blood markers of mast-cell (plasma histamine and serum level of heat-stable neutrophil chemotactic activity [NCA]) and eosinophil (serum eosinophil cationic protein [ECP]) activation during early airway response (EAR) and late airway response (LAR) to allergen inhalation in 24 asthmatic subjects. After EAR, 14 subjects showed significant LAR (FEV1 fall: > or = 25%), while 10 subjects showed equivocal LAR...
