Serine elastase inhibitors have been proposed as a treatment for cigarette smoke-induced emphysema, but little is known about whether such agents actually are effective. We recently reported that a synthetic serine elastase inhibitor, ZD0892, provide

The cells and proteases that mediate cigarette smoke-induced emphysema are controversial, with evidence favoring either neutrophils and neutrophil-derived serine proteases or macrophages and macrophage-derived metalloproteases as the important effect

The cells/proteases responsible for the development of smoke-induced emphysema is an area of intense investigation. Mice with knockout of macrophage metalloelastase genes (MME(-/-)) do not develop emphysema after smoke exposure, but we also observed

Summary The fixation reaction of copper-ethanolamine preservatives in wood was studied using the reaction between vanillin, a lignin model compound, and ethanolamine-copper sulphate solution. The green compound precipitated after the reaction has bee

There is increasing evidence that antiproteases are able to affect the inflammatory response. To further examine this question, we administered human alpha-1-antitrypsin (alpha1AT) or a synthetic metalloprotease inhibitor (RS113456) to C57 mice follo

Mineral dusts produce emphysema, and administration of dust to rats results in the rapid appearance of desmosine and hydroxyproline in lavage fluid, confirming that dusts directly induce connective tissue breakdown. To examine the role of neutrophils

A model for the fixation of ammoniacal copper preservatives in wood was examined through reaction of vanillin, a lignin model compound, with ammoniacal copper sulphate solution. The compound produced on evaporation of the aqueous ammoniacal solution

Air pollution particles (PM) are known to elicit an acute inflammatory response in vivo that is mediated in part through PM-induced activation of the NF-kappaB signaling pathway. Many of the details of this process and particularly where in the cell

Mice lacking tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) receptors (TNFRKO mice) do not develop an inflammatory infiltrate or matrix breakdown after a single acute cigarette smoke exposure. To determine the role of TNF-alpha in the long-term development

Small airway remodeling ("small airways disease") is a common finding in cigarette smokers and is an important cause of airflow obstruction. Airway remodeling is usually attributed to the effects of cigarette smoke-induced inflammation in the airway
