Dimethylthiourea protects against chlorine induced changes in airway function in a murine model of irritant induced asthma

BACKGROUND: Exposure to chlorine (Cl(2)) causes airway injury, characterized by oxidative damage, an influx of inflammatory cells and airway hyperresponsiveness. We hypothesized that Cl(2)-induced airway injury may be attenuated by antioxidant treatment, even after the initial injury. METHODS: Balb/...
