Differential Airway Reactivity to Carbachol and Physostigmine Sulfate in Rhesus Monkeys with and without Reagin-Mediated Respiratory Responses

Abstract

Bronchial airway reactivity to carbachol (CAR) and physostigmine (PHY) was individually measured in three rhesus monkeys with and three rhesus monkeys without reagin-mediated respiratory responses (RR). The three monkeys with reagin-mediated RR demonstrated bronchial hyperreactivity to CAR (p in vivo by PHY.
