Capsaicin suppresses ciliary function, while inducing permeability in bronchial epithelial cell cultures of copd patients

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: TYPE et al. from the University of Rochester, United States have published the Article: Capsaicin suppresses ciliary function, while inducing permeability in bronchial epithelial cell cultures of COPD patients, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: The authors investigated the effects of capsaicin on primary human bronchial epithelial_cells (BEC) cultured from non-smokers, smokers, and smoker patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and found that capsaicin can show detrimental effects on these cells. The authors investigated the effect of capsaicin on ciliary function, epithelial permeability, inflammatory cytokine release and cellular toxicity from BECs from well . . .
