Utility of the precision cut lung slice model to investigate airway smooth muscle contraction
Asthma is characterised by airway remodelling and an increase in airway resistance. A greater understanding of the mechanisms involved in airway inflammation and airway hyper-responsiveness (AHR) may highlight therapeutic opportunities for asthma. This study initially aimed to optimise the preparati...
