This book details advances in research regarding cilia, mucus, and
mucociliary clearance, examining changes in mucus expression and
goblet cell metaplasia, and assessing the ability of the
mucociliary system to respond to abnormalities. Recognizes that
cilia and dynein arms play pivotal roles in developing mammalian
embryos! Examines the role of genetics in normal and abnormal
ciliary function! Discussing scientific fundamentals, current
diagnostic techniques, and clinically tested treatments, Cilia and
Mucus - analyzes the regulation of ciliary waves at the cellular
level - considers irregularities of upper and lower airways and
cilia in systems of the body - explores potential modulators of
airway mucin secretion - proposes a novel therapy for airway
hypersecretion due to the epidermal growth factor cascade -
clarifies gamma camera imaging to measure mucociliary clearance -
describes the effect of purinergic receptors and dry powder
mannitol on airway passages - and more! With contributions from
over 100 international researchers and clinicians, and containing
over 1300 references, drawings, photographs, tables, and equations,
Cilia and Mucus is a unique single-source reference for
pulmonologists, physiologists, immunologists, allergists,
otolaryngologists, pediatricians, microbiologists, basic
scientists, and graduate and medical school students in these
disciplines.
