Bovine bronchial mucosa

Figure 10.5 The effects of lonophore-stimulated human eosinophils on the permeability of bovine bronchial mucosa to mannitol. The inset panel in this figure illustrates the action of 0.05 mgml bacterial collagenase for...

Stimulated eosinophils and proteinases augment the transepithelial flux of albumin in bovine bronchial mucosa. Br. J. Pharmacol. 110, 840-846. 

Plate III Eosinophils produce an increase in permeabiiity of the bovine bronchial mucosa and detachment of columnar epithelial cells. Panel (a) shows bronchial mucosa exposed to unstimulated eosinophils. Panels (b) and (c) show bronchial epithelium that had been exposed to ionophore-stimulated eosinophiis. ionophore alone does... 

Figure 10.4 (a) Resistance of bovine tracheai mucosa to injury eiicited by ionophore activated human neutrophils, and (b) susceptibility of bronchial mucosa under identical conditions. Injury, In this case cell detachment, was measured indirectly by measuring the permeability of the airway mucosa to serum albumin. Cells were applied to the basolateral surface and the vector of solute movement was basolateral-apical.
