Abstract
Purpose/Aim of the study: Methacholine chloride (MCh) inhalation causes bronchoconstriction and cough. Following MCh-induced bronchoconstriction, metabolic products of prostaglandin I2 (PGI2) increase in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), suggesting that PGI2 plays a role in the cough response. Accordingly, we used an experimental guinea pig model to evaluate the role of PGI2 in the bronchoconstriction-triggered cough response.Experiment 1:...
