Adenylyl Cyclase 2 Selectively Regulates IL-6 Expression in Human Bronchial Smooth Muscle Cells
… regulation, and protein interactions, and most cells express multiple isoforms. We hypothesized that cAMP produced by different AC isoforms regulates unique cellular responses. Overexpression of individual isoforms had distinct effects on forskolin (Fsk)-induced expression of a number of known …

Factors influencing the responsiveness of human bronchi
The primary function of airway smooth muscle is to contract, regulating the airway tone and bronchial narrowing. Research extending over a number of decades has identified many of the major factors contributing to the degree of bronchial contraction at a cellular level including receptor mediated …

Vitamin D and Immunomodulation in Bronchial Asthma
… Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGF-β). Airway Smooth Muscle Cells (ASMCs) when activated in an antigen sensitized state, behave in an autocrine and paracrine manner by producing and responding to mediators such as TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, IL-17, GM-CSF (Granulocyte macrophage …
