Epithelium-dependent regulation of airways smooth muscle function. A histamine-nitric oxide pathway

The airway epithelium is responsible for the production of a number of arachidonic acid and nonprostanoid inhibitory factors. Epithelium synthesises nitric oxide (NO) which may be important in regulating the function of airways smooth muscles. We studied in vitro the effect of histamine (100 nM100 μ...
