Proteomics in Nasal Lavage Fluids from Persulfate Challenged Hairdressers
… to protein abundances and protein oxidation, in nasal lavage fluids (NLF) from hairdressers challenged with persulfates. Proteins regulate most biological processes in the human body. Changes in protein levels may therefore provide a better understanding of disease pathogenesis and/or candidate …

Correlation between Locally Produced Specific IgA and Eosinophil Cationic Protein in Nasal Lavage Fluids of Allergic Rhinitis Patients during Allergen Provocation Tests
… Eosinophils are the major effector cells in nasal allergic inflammation. However, the mechanism of eosinophil activation mediated by a series of inflammatory mediators presenting in early and late responses of allergic rhinitis (AR) is not fully understood. Objective: The aim of this study …

Female hairdressers - Respiratory symptoms, mechanisms, and health-related quality of life and their views on the work environment
… symptoms and mechanism of bleaching-associated nasal symptoms, the effects on HRQoL and how young hairdressers reason about the work environment. A moderate increased risk of asthma was found during active time in non-smoking hairdressers, and it was somewhat greater for those performing most …

Asthma in West Sweden - a translational study from epidemiology to proteomics
… protein expression patterns could be detected in nasal lavage fluid. In total 193 proteins was identified with a fold change of at least 1.3 as compared to healthy, these proteins represent different biological functions and pathways between phenotypes. We conclude that the previous increase in …

New Mediators and Novel Mechanisms in Allergic Airway Inflammation
… spectrometry to identify protein patterns in nasal lavage fluid obtained from patients with allergic rhinitis and healthy controls. Six novel proteins, not previously described in the nose, were identified: S100 calcium-binding protein A7 (S100A7), Wingless-type MMTV integration site family, …

Patterns in the Presence of Respiratory Tract Mycoplasmas in Four Species of North American Tortoises
… chain reactions (qPCR) on DNA extractions from nasal flushes. The qPCR process showed that both Mycoplasma pathogens were present in the four species of tortoises. Statistical analyses indicated that "species" and "sample site" were significantly associated with the presence of M. agassizii, …

Chloride Channel 3 (CLC3), an Immune Antiporter in the Migration and Activation of Human Eosinophils in Allergic Asthma
… asthmatic group. On the contrary, nasal lavage eosinophils showed higher CLC3 expression in moderate-to-severe asthmatics than mild-to-moderate. The CLC3 expression was noted in the membrane and organelles of eosinophils suggesting a broad role of this chloride channel in the …

Molecular genetic mechanisms of eosinophil activation in aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease : Genetic mechanisms of eosinophil activation
… Eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) level in nasal lavage fluid (NLF) from AERD and ATA patients was measured after nasal provocation test with lysine-aspirin. Results: There were no significant differences in genotype, haplotype and allele frequencies of IL5 polymorphisms between the two …

Beziehung zwischen nasaler Entzündung und bronchialer Hyperreaktivität bei Kindern
… untersucht. Die Untersuchungen bestanden aus nasaler Lavage (NAL), Lungenfunktionsprüfung (LUFU), einwöchigen Peak-Flow-Messungen (PEF) und Haut-Prick-Test (HPT). <br>In dieser Dissertation wird der Frage nachgegangen, ob es bei den Kindern einen Zusammenhang zwischen nasaler Inflammation, …
