Study of Sedimentation Velocity of Block Copolymer Micelles (2006)

Tian, Minmin, Ramireddy, C., Webber, Stephen E., Munk, Petr

Sedimentation velocity experiments may provide many valuable insights into the nature and behavior of macromolecules and other particles. In this study we are reporting on sedimentation velocity of...

Hybridization of Block Copolymer Micelles (2006)

Tian, Minmin, Qin, Anwei, Webber, Stephen E., Munk, Petr, Tuzar, Zdenek

Block copolymers of styrene and methacrylic acid dissolved in water/ dioxane mixtures form spherical micelles with polystyrene cores and poly(methacrylic acid) shells. When two micellar solutions...

Anti-inflammatory and bronchodilator properties of RP 73401, a novel and selective phosphodiesterase type IV inhibitor

Raeburn, David, Underwood, Stephen L., Lewis, Susan A., Woodman, Valerie R., Battram, Cliff H., Tomkinson, Adrian, ...

1 We have investigated the effects of RP 73401, a novel, potent and highly selective cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase (PDE) type IV inhibitor, in guinea-pig and rat models of bronchoconstriction...

Effect of endothelin antagonists, including the novel ETA receptor antagonist LBL 031, on endothelin-1 and lipopolysaccharide-induced microvascular leakage in rat airways

Hele, Dave J, Birrell, Mark A, Webber, Stephen E, Foster, Martyn L, Belvisi, Maria G

The effect of the novel ETA receptor antagonist LBL 031 and other selective and mixed endothelin receptor antagonists on endothelin-1 (ET-1)-induced and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced microvascular...

Mediator involvement in antigen-induced bronchospasm and microvascular leakage in the airways of ovalbumin sensitized Brown Norway rats

Hele, Dave J, Birrell, Mark A, Webber, Stephen E, Foster, Martyn L, Belvisi, Maria G

To determine which mediators are involved in antigen-induced bronchospasm and microvascular leakage in the airways of ovalbumin sensitised Brown Norway rats we investigated the effect of a histamine...

Role of p38 MAP kinase in LPS-induced airway inflammation in the rat

Haddad, El-Bdaoui, Birrell, Mark, McCluskie, Kerryn, Ling, Andrea, Webber, Stephen E, Foster, Martyn L, ...

We investigated the effect of the p38 kinase inhibitor SB 203580 on airway inflammation induced by aerosolized lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in male Wistar rats. SB 203580 significantly inhibited...

Functional characterization and biomarker identification in the Brown Norway model of allergic airway inflammation

Underwood, Stephen L, Haddad, El-Bdaoui, Birrell, Mark A, McCluskie, Kerryn, Pecoraro, Michaela, Dabrowski, Dominika, ...

The antigen-induced inflammatory response in the Brown Norway rat is a model commonly used to assess the impact of novel compounds on airway eosinophilia. A detailed functional, cellular and...
