Because Th1 responses are known to inhibit Th2 responses [ 48, 49], including mucous cell metaplastic responses, we hypothesize that the robust Th1 (M1) responses at PND 3 and 10 dampen the Th2-skewed environment normally seen in early post-natal lung development identified in this study and described elsewhere [ 50].
We obtained the following types of samples: muscle and liver tissue, 42 samples; blood, 10; hair, 12; oral mucous membrane, 4; and tooth or mandibula bone, 117.
In addition to epidermal cells, other cells like solitary chemosensory cells [55], mucous cell [56], taste buds [57], ciliated cells [48], and epidermal ICs [14], [58] have also been reported in either fish or frogs.
Urinalysis showed 2+ albumin, 3+ blood, trace WBC esterase, negative nitrite, 5 10 WBC, 0 5 red blood cells (RBC), 5 10 epithelial cells, 5 10 hyaline casts, 3+ amorphous cells, and 1+ mucous.
From 24 MEC samples, cell subtypes isolated included squamous (n=13), intermediate (n=4), mucous (n=16), and adjacent normal salivary gland (n=12).
The activity score takes into account erythema (0 3), scale/hypertrophy (0 2), mucous membrane lesions (0 1), recent hair loss (0 1) and non-scarring alopecia (0 3).
Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS): extensive rash with the involvement of at least 2 mucous membranes or blistering eruptions affecting <10% of body surface area.
MUC2 is present in the middle and top of the glands (figure 5C) and MUC5AC on the surface and in the middle of glands (figure 5D): the basal TFF2+/MUC6+ mucous zone is preserved (figure 5E and F).
Indications for removal included stent fracture (n = 6), migration (n = 5), granulation tissue (n = 4), mucous plugging/obstruction (n = 4), recurrence of stenosis (n = 3), no clinical improvement (n = 3), and hemoptysis (n = 1).
