We report on the effect of glutathione, an antioxidant compound on the airway response to the ultrasonically nebulised distilled water (UNDW, 'fog') challenge.
12 subjects with mild-to-moderate bronchial asthma underwent double-blind, cross-over pretreatment, administered 30 min earlier, in a randomised order with inhaled glutathione (G) (600 mg), sodium cromoglycate (SCG) (20 mg) and placebo (P), followed by the challenge.
After P pretreatment UNDW challenge caused a mean 20.41% decrease in FEV-1 (p < 0.05), after G, a mean 6.04% fall in FEV-1 (p = n.s.), and after SCG a mean 5.99% fall in FEV-1 (p = n.s.).
G significantly attenuated 'fog'-induced falls in FEV-1 (p < 0.001 compared with P) and showed a protective effect on UNDW-induced bronchoconstriction.
我们报告了抗氧化化合物谷胱甘肽对气道对超声雾化蒸馏水(UNDW,“雾”)激发试验反应的影响。
12名轻至中度支气管哮喘患者进行双盲、交叉预处理,提前30分钟随机依次吸入谷胱甘肽(G)(600毫克)、色甘酸钠(SCG)(20毫克)和安慰剂(P),随后进行激发试验。
P预处理后,UNDW激发试验导致FEV-1平均下降20.41%(p<0.05),G预处理后,FEV-1平均下降6.04%(p无统计学意义),SCG预处理后,FEV-1平均下降5.99%(p无统计学意义)。
G显著减轻了“雾”诱导的FEV-1下降(与P相比,p<0.001),并对UNDW诱导的支气管收缩显示出保护作用。
