4 ABSTRACT Asthma is a disease characterized by airway hyperresponsiveness (AH) to various spasmogens. Ozone-inhalation causes transient AH of human and canine airway smooth muscle (ASM) and has therefore been used as a model of AR. The mechanism(s) underlying ozone-induced or asthma-related AR are not completely understood, but there is a growing body of evidence that there is a causal relationship between airway inflammation and AR. In these studies, the mechanisms regulating canine bronchial smooth muscle (3 rd to 5 th order) activit~ were investigated using intracellular microelectrodes (to monitor electrical activity) and muscle baths (to monitor mechanical activity). The effects of ozone-inhalation and inflammatory mediators on regulation of ASM tone were also investigated. Excitation of ASM (membrane depolarization and contraction) was elicited by activation of muscarinic receptors or thromboxane receptors; the former were found to be of the M3-subtype. The data indicated that pharmacomechanical (rather than electromechanical) coupling was involved. Inhibition of ASM was found to be initiated by activation of 8-adrenoceptors; these were found to be predominantly of the 8 1 subtype, though there was evidence that some 8 2 -adrenoceptors were also involved. There was evidence of physiological antagonism between cholinergic receptor-mediated excitation and adrenoceptormediated inhibition due to reciprocal effects on adenylate cyclase. iii
5 Release of acetylcholine from the cholinergic nerve endings was antagonized by activation of muscarinic receptors (H1-subtype) or adrenoceptors (both and 82- subtypes), and potentiated by activation of thromboxane receptors; these receptor populations were presumed to be located on the nerve endings. There was indirect evidence that neurotransmitter-release was also antagonized by a cyclo-oxygenase metabolite of arachidonic acid (presumably PGE 2 ). Ozone-inhalation significantly enhanced contractions in response to electric stimulation, but did not significantly a'ter those to exogenously-added cholinergic agonist or to KCl. This AH was prevented by indomethacin (cyclo~oxygenase inhibitor) or by L 670,596 (thro~oboxane receptor antagonist). It was concluded that the mechanism underlying ozone-induced AH involved decreased prejunctional inhibition (mediated by PGE 2 ) and/or increased prejunctional excitation (mediated by TxA2). iv
6 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS lowe a great deal of thanks and credit to many people, without whom I know I could not have finished. The first of those I would like to thank are Drs. E.E. Daniel and P.M.

15 INTRODUCTION (1) ASM Morphology The overall design of the respiratory system of vertebrates can be compared to that of an inverted tree, with large passages progressively dividing into ever more numerous and smaller passages. The largest of these is the trachea, which divides into the left and right bronchi. The latter, in turn, divide into a number of second order bronchi, each of which conduct air to one of the lobes of lung (six in total in the case of the canine species). The second order bronchi within each lobe then branch into third order, fourth order, etc., until the tissue becomes a tangled web of microscopic airways with sac-like terminations, referred to as alveoli, where gas exchange with the blood occurs. The innervation to the airways has a similar branching structure, which mirrors that of the airways. Finally, the arterial and venous systems invade the lungs at the same point where the second order bronchi enter each lobe, and then continue to follow the branching network of airway passages. In the airways used in this project, the pulmonary artery and the pulmonary vein were typically found immediately juxtaposed to the airway (and on opposite sides), which greatly facilitated dissection and excision of the tissue. It is important to keep in mind this overall structure, since there are regional differences with respect to structure and
