The effect of a thromboxane A2 synthetase inhibitor (OKY-046, 400 mg po/day) on mucociliary transport was investigated in 19 asthmatic patients. The nasal clearance time, as measured by the saccharin test, was prolonged in asthmatics (60.2 +/- 8.4 SE min) compared with normal controls (15.1 +/- 3.4 SE min). Within 4 weeks after OKY-046 administration, the nasal clearance time had improved (27.4 +/- 4.4 SE min, P less than .01) and the amount of sputum had decreased 30% (P less than .01). These results indicate that thromboxane A2 plays an important role in mucociliary transport in patients with asthma.
在19例哮喘患者中研究了血栓素A2合成酶抑制剂(OKY - 046,口服,每日400毫克)对黏液纤毛运输的影响。通过糖精试验测定,哮喘患者的鼻腔清除时间(60.2±8.4标准误分钟)较正常对照组(15.1±3.4标准误分钟)延长。给予OKY - 046后4周内,鼻腔清除时间有所改善(27.4±4.4标准误分钟,P<0.01),痰液量减少了30%(P<0.01)。这些结果表明,血栓素A2在哮喘患者的黏液纤毛运输中起重要作用。
