Pharyngeal mucosal wall folds in subjects with obstructive sleep apnea.

Kairaitis K1, Foster S2, Amatoury J3, Verma M4, Wheatley JR3, Amis TC3.
Journal of applied physiology (Bethesda, Md. : 1985).J Appl Physiol (1985).2015 Mar 15;118(6):707-15. doi: 10.1152/japplphysiol.00691.2014. Epub 2015 Jan 29.
Mechanical processes underlying pharyngeal closure have not been examined. We hypothesized that the pharyngeal mucosal surface would fold during closure, and lowering the upper airway lining liquid surface tension would unfold areas of mucosal apposition, i.e., folds. We compared baseline pharyngeal

Glutathione S-transferase M1 modulates allergen-induced NF-κB activation in asthmatic airway epithelium.

Polosukhin VV1, Polosukhin IV, Hoskins A, Han W, Abdolrasulnia R, Blackwell TS, Dworski R.
Allergy.Allergy.2014 Dec;69(12):1666-72. doi: 10.1111/all.12506. Epub 2014 Oct 1.
BACKGROUND: Glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) is a phase II enzyme and regulator of inflammatory signaling in airway epithelial cells. We have found upregulation of neutrophilic airway inflammation in atopic asthmatics expressing GSTM1 gene (GSTM1+) compared to GSTM1null asthmatics. We hypothesiz

The concept of rhinorespiratory homeostasis--a new approach to nasal breathing.

Hildebrandt T1, Heppt WJ, Kertzscher U, Goubergrits L.
Facial plastic surgery : FPS.Facial Plast Surg.2013 Apr;29(2):85-92. doi: 10.1055/s-0033-1341590. Epub 2013 Apr 5.
The suggested concept of rhinorespiratory homeostasis is a new theoretical model for the discussion of physiologic and physical principles of nasal breathing. This model is based on a comprehensive view of nasal functions that takes comparative animal physiology into account. Consequently, it has a
