However, precise mechanisms and effects on mucus production and secretion in the pathogenesis of asthma are unclear. Ambroxol has been in the clinic for many years, the drug is inexpensive and few adverse effects have been described.
Eur J Respir Dis. Published online Jun Effects of guaifenesin, N-acetylcysteine, and ambroxol on MUC5AC and mucociliary transport in primary differentiated human tracheal-bronchial cells.
Airway responsiveness was assessed as changes in airway function after challenge with aerosolized methacholine MCh Sigma. Disruption of Nrf2 enhances susceptibility to severe airway inflammation and asthma in mice. Cellspecific modulation of surfactant proteins by ambroxol treatment. From production to secretion. Among these factors, Th2 cells and related cytokines, IL-4, IL-5, and IL are thought to play a central role in the pathogenesis of the jurnall Ambroxol for women at amroxol of preterm birth for preventing neonatal respiratory distress syndrome.
However, the underlying mechanisms whereby ambroxol exhibits anti-inflammatory effects in the airways such as in asthma remain to be defined.
Immunomodulatory Effects of Ambroxol on Airway Hyperresponsiveness and Inflammation
When ambroxol treatment was initiated following OVA challenge of sensitized mice, the development of AHR was significantly decreased compared to the control group Fig. In summary, administration of ambroxol was shown to normalize AHR when given either prior to or after completion of allergen challenge in previously sensitized mice.
Effect of ambroxol on airway responses when administered after completion of the allergen challenges. The socioeconomic burden in the treatment of asthma has been of worldwide concern with increasing prevalence of the disease 12. The predictive value of asthma medications to identify individuals with asthma–a study in German general practices.
Journal List Immune Netw v. Ambroxol also maintains the airway surface environment by modulating surfactant protein levels in the airways and increased mucociliary clearance 17 As shown in Fig. Find articles by Mitsune Tanimoto.
Ambroxol in the 21st century: pharmacological and clinical update.
Why aren’t we doing better in asthma: Effects of N-acetylcysteine plus deferoxamine in smbroxol acute lung injury in the rat. To determine the effects of ambroxol In vitrolung mononuclear cells MNCs were isolated and cultured with OVA and ambroxol under various conditions. Ambroxol has been widely used since the late s in various respiratory diseases with the goal of improving mucus clearance, facilitating expectoration, easing of productive cough, and providing local anesthetic effects 13 Oral N-acetylcysteine attenuates the rat pulmonary inflammatory response to antigen.
Cytokine levels in the BAL fluid or supernatants from cultured cells were measured as previously described Effect of ambroxol administration following allergen challenge When ambroxol treatment was initiated following OVA challenge of sensitized mice, the development of AHR was significantly decreased compared to the control group Fig.
Reassessing the Th2 cytokine basis of asthma. Oxidative microenvironment exerts an opposite regulatory effect on cytokine production by Th1 and Th2 cells. These signaling molecules have been studied as potential targets of pharmacotherapy to inhibit airway mucus production in asthma 8.

Upregulation of MUC5AC, a mucin-inducing gene, was related to disease severity in asthmatics and in animal models 6jurnao. Recent studies have revealed regulatory effects of oxidative stress on cytokine production. Cytokine secretion levels from alveolar macrophages were analyzed following culture with OVA and ambroxol Fig.
In other experiments, as illustrated in Fig. The dose of ambroxol was chosen based on previous studies 2123 and preliminary studies. Ambroxol in the nurnal century: Therefore, understanding the potential of the drug in the treatment of asthma is a valid concern.
Abstract Ambroxol is used in COPD and asthma to increase mucociliary clearance and regulate surfactant levels, perhaps through anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activities.
Immunomodulatory Effects of Ambroxol on Airway Hyperresponsiveness and Inflammation
Thus, ambroxol appeared to act at two different levels: This article has been cited by other articles in PMC. The levels of protein carbonyls as a marker of oxidative stress were also significantly reduced. Is the prevalence of asthma declining? Oxidative stress ambroxop be induced in any organ of the body when the qmbroxol of anti-oxidant versus reactive oxygen species is altered Find articles by Katsuyuki Takeda.
Taken together, ambroxol was effective in preventing AHR and airway inflammation through upregulation of Th1 cytokines and protection from oxidative stress in the airways. Oxidative stress in allergic respiratory diseases.
