    Notes: Abstract Respiratory hypersensitivity to ascaris extract aerosol and the potentation of airway resistance increase caused by acetylcholine and histamine challenge produced by this allergen exposition were carried out on four dogs. The effect of disodium cromoglycate on these reactions was also studied. All animals presented significant respiratory distress with ascaris extract aerosol, which could be avoided by previous exposure to disodium cromoglycate aerosol. The increased response of the bronchial system to acetylcholine and histamine, observed after allergen aerosol, could not be abolished by disodium cromoglycate aerosol.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung In einer Klimakammer wurden unter konstanten Temperatur-und Feuchtigkeitsbedingungen 16 gesunde Versuchspersonen mit O (= Kontrolle), 1 (= 1,8 mg/m3), 2,5 (= 4,5 mg/m3), 5 (= 9 mg/m3) and 7,5 (= 13,5 mg/m3) ppm NO2 über 2 h und 8 gesunde Probanden mit 5 ppm NO2 über 14 h belastet. Erfaßt wurden der Bronchialwiderstand (Rt), das endexspiratorische Thoraxgas volumen (IGV) und der arterielle O2-(PaO2) and CO2-(PaCO2) Partialdruck sowie die Bronchialwiderstandsänderung nach Acetylcholininhalation (ΔRt nach ACH) als Maß der bronchialen Reaktionsbereitschaft gegenüber bronchokonstriktorischen Reizen. Folgende Befunde wurden erhoben: 1. NO2 ≥ 2,5 ppm fahrte im Mittel zu einem signifikanten Rt-Anstieg. Für die geprüften Konzentrationen ≥ 2,5 ppm ließ sich keine eindeutige Dosis-Wir kungsrelation ermitteln. 2. Der Verlauf der Rt-Änderung unter NO2 zeigte einen initialen Gipfel, dann bis zur zeigten Belastungsstunde eine Tendenz zur Rückbildung und anschließend eine erneute ausgeprägtere Zunahme, die mit der weiteren Expositionszeit kor reliert war. 3. Das Ausmaß der individuellen Rt-Zunahme unter NO2 war signifikant mit dem vorbestehenden individuellen ΔRt nach ACH korreliert. 4. Δ Rt nach ACH nahm nach Belastung mit 7,5 ppm NO2 über 2 h and mit 5 ppm NO2 über 14 h signifikant zu, nicht nach 2-stündiger Belastung mit 2,5 und 5 ppm NO2. 5. Das mittlere IGV stieg unter NO2 ≥ 2,5 ppm an; die Steigerung war nur imspäten Verlauf der 14-stündigen Belastung mit 5 ppm NO2 statistisch signifikant. 6. PaO2 und PaCO2 zeigten unter No2 im Vergleich zum Kontrollversuch keine überzufälligen Abweichungen. Es wird angenommen, daß NO2 den bronchialen Vagusreflex durch Stimulation und/oder Sensibilisierung der sensorischen Rezeptoren beeinflußt.
    Notes: Summary Sixteen healthy persons were exposed to O (= control), 1 (= 1.8 mg/m3), 2.5 (= 4.5 mg/m3), 5 (= 9 mg/m3), and 7.5 (= 13.5 mg/m3) ppm NO2 for 2 h and 8 healthy persons to 5 ppm NO2 for 14 h in an airconditioning plant. Temperature and humidity were kept constant. We determined the airway resistance (Rt), the endexspiratory thoracic gas volume (IGV), the arterial O2- (PaO2) and CO2-(PCO2) tension, and the bronchial susceptibility to bronchoconstricting irritants by considering the increase of the Rt-value after inhalation of acetylcholine (ΔRt after ACH). The following results were obtained: 1. A significant increase of mean Rt-values was observed by exposure to ≥ 2.5 ppm NO2. The concentrations ≥ 2.5 ppm tested, did not show a significant dose-response dependence. 2. The changes of the Rt-values during NO2-exposure showed an initial peak, then a decreasing tendency until the second hour, concluding with a new, more pronounced increase, which was correlated with the further time of exposure. 3. The individual amount of the increase of Rt during exposure to NO2 was significant related to the individual ΔRt after ACH. 4. ΔRt after ACH increased significantly after exposure to 7.5 ppm NO2 over 2 h and to 5 ppm NO2 over 14 h, but not after exposure to 2.5 and 5 ppm NO2 over 2 h. 5. During NO2 ≥2 2.5 ppm the mean values of IGV increased, but the augmentation was significant only in the later stages of the exposure to 5 ppm NO2 over 14 h. 6. No significant differences of PaO2 and PaCO2 were observed in relation to control. We assume, that NO2 influences the bronchial vagus-reflex by stimulation and/or sensitisation of the irritant receptors.

    Notes: Summary The response to prolonged antigen exposure and the potentation of airway resistance increase to ACH challenge, after this exposure, were studied on sixteen boxer dogs. One group of animals presented fatigue to A. E. after 3 hours of exposure. This group developed an increased response to ACH aerosol after fatique to antigen was present. In a second group of dogs, absence of fatigue during prolonged exposure to allergen was observed. A growing tendency of Edyn (as an index of airway resistance) was observed after 5 hours of exposure. The therapeutical influence of bilateral vagus blockade was tested in these last animals. Blockade of nervus vagus released airway obstruction during prolonged allergen exposure and no bronchoconstriction was observed after ACH challenge during blockade.
