Constituent 1
Test animals
- Species:
- other: bovine bronchial epithelial cells
Administration / exposure
- Details on study design:
- Ciliated bovine bronchial epithelial cells and fresh bovine trachea obtained from a local slaughterhouse. Actively beating ciliated cells were observed, and there motion was quantified by measuring cilia beat frequency using phase-contrast microscopy and videotape analysis. The axoneme motion after ATP-reactivation was qualitatively assessed by comparing the motion of the test substance-exposed axonemes to that of buffer-exposed axonemes. Acetaldehyde binding to cilia proteins was determined using electrophoretic and autoradiotraphic analysis of acetaldehyde-labeled cilia proteins. ATPase activity was determined by measuring the liberation of 32-P-labeled inorganic phosphate from [γ 32P]ATP.
Results and discussion
- Details on results:
- The test substance dose-dependently inhibited the cilia beating and the cilia ATPase activity in bovine bronchial epithelial cells.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
