The nasal mucosa and the autonomic nervous regulation of protective reflexes plays an important role for the protection of the lower airways. Increasing experimental evidence from both animal models and humans suggests that the organization of the autonomic nervous pathways is more complicated than previously assumed. Thus a number of biologically active peptides are known to be present in the autonomic pathways and coexist with the classical transmitters. The neuropeptides have experimentally been shown to play an important role in the pathophysiological events in both specific and nonspecific hyperreactivity.
鼻黏膜与保护性反射的自主神经调节对下呼吸道的保护起着重要作用。来自动物模型和人类的越来越多的实验证据表明，自主神经通路的组织比以前认为的更为复杂。因此，已知许多生物活性肽存在于自主神经通路中，并与经典递质共存。实验表明，神经肽在特异性和非特异性高反应性的病理生理事件中都起着重要作用。
