New Zealand White rabbits were exposed intratracheally to aerosolized cotton dust extract (CDE) for 5 minutes of tidal breathing and lavaged 15 minutes 1, 4, and 6 hours after exposure. Bronchoalveolar lavage cells were counted, and the number of macrophages and polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs)

Female guinea pigs were perfused via the pulmonary artery with Tyrode's solution containing 0, 10(-6), 10(-5), or 10(-4) g/mL of lyophilized aqueous extracts of cotton dust. The perfusate was collected via the pulmonary vein and analyzed for prostaglandin F2 alpha, its metabolite 15-keto-13,

Biochemical and immunologic characterization of cotton bract extract and its effect on in vitro cyclic AMP production. I. Field-dried bract.

Only registered users can translate articles
Log In/Sign up
Field-dried cotton bract, a contaminant of cotton dust, has been implicated in byssinosis pathogenesis. The results from this study demonstrated that a standard bract extract (FDBE) could be prepared. FDBE was antigenic in rabbits; however, precipitating antibodies were not detectable in the serum

In vitro effects of aqueous cotton dust extract on leucocyte cyclic adenosine monophosphate levels.

Only registered users can translate articles
Log In/Sign up
Aqueous cotton dust extracts (ACDE) stimulated production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in normal human peripheral blood mononuclear leucocytes (MNL). This response was not due to prostaglandin production by monocytes or platelets in the cell preparation nor to stimulation of the

Bioassays of smooth muscle contracting agents in cotton mill dust and bract extracts: arachidonic acid metabolites as possible mediators of the acute byssinotic reaction.

Only registered users can translate articles
Log In/Sign up
Byssinosis is an occupational respiratory disease contracted by cotton mill workers who inhale cotton mill dust. The acute byssinotic reaction is characterized by a drop in the 1-sec forced expiratory volume (FEV1.0) on Monday following a weekend's absence from work. This physiological reaction is

Pantoea agglomerans: a marvelous bacterium of evil and good.Part I. Deleterious effects: Dust-borne endotoxins and allergens - focus on cotton dust.

Log In/Sign up
The ubiquitous Gram-negative bacterium Pantoea agglomerans (synonyms: Enterobacter agglomerans, Erwinia herbicola) is known both as an epiphytic microbe developing on the surface of plants and as an endophytic organism living inside the plants. The bacterium occurs also abundantly in plant and
