Emphysema and irreversible airway limitation that is characteristic of chronic tobacco smoking are related to the destruction of elastin and the resulting loss of lung elastic recoil.
Patients with obstructive sleep apnea have impaired sleep and higher ghrelin levels than BMI-matched controls, and treatment with continuous positive airway pressure reduces ghrelin to control levels [15].
FEV 1 and FVC are highly correlated in populations without significant degree of airway obstruction.
We determined H 2 O displacement lung volumes at total lung capacity (25 cmH 2 O airway pressure) as the simplest measure to document the hyperexpansion characteristic of emphysema in the elastase-treated animals.
Interestingly, RSV infection of HEp-2 cells also led to the formation of actin stress fibers and activation of the small cellular GTPase RhoA, a modulator of actin filamentation [ 14 15 16 17 ] . Inhibition of RhoA or its interaction with F resulted in the inhibition of syncytium as well as stress fiber formation and the second cycle of infection [ 14 ] . Recombinant F also activated RhoA in the absence of any other viral protein [ 17 ] . Based on these results, it was inferred that stress fiber formation might be important in some aspects of RSV infection, such as virus spread, elaboration of cytokines from infected cells, and contraction of airway muscles that promotes asthma.
