|
respiratory system
|
• nuclear enlargement in airway epithelial cells
• airway epithelial cell hypertrophy
• intracellular accumulation of refractile materials in epithelium
• increased collagen deposition in subepithelial regions and in the adventitia of the airways
|
|
• accumulation of needlelike crystals in alveoli and air passages, increasing with age
|
|
• alveolar wall rupture observed
|
|
• production of neutral and acidic mucus stimulated
|
|
• inflammatory response around small and large airways and in neighboring parenchyma
• milder in 1-2 month old mice
• more pronounced in 2-4 month old mice
|
|
• increased baseline airway resistance particularly as mice age
|
|
• increased bronchiospastic response to methacholine
|
immune system
|
• cells involved in respiratory inflammation predominantly mononuclear
• moderate numbers of enlarged and sometimes multinucleated macrophage
• significant numbers of eosinophiles
• pockets of degenerating inflammatory cells
