Background
There is clinical evidence for impaired lung function in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) patients, which may be due to a high incidence of asthma comorbidity. The lung function characteristics of non‐asthmatic CRSwNP patients are not known. Small airway dysfunction (SAD) is involved in the pathogenesis of asthma. However, whether SAD is detected in non‐asthmatic patients...
New Findings
What is the central question of this study?
The aim of this study was to evaluate artesunate for its use as a bronchodilator in asthma treatment.
What is the main finding and its importance?
We found that artesunate reduces airway resistance in both normal and ovalbumin‐treated Balb/c mice in vivo. Artesunate reduces traction force while inducing Ca2+ influx into cultured airway smooth...
