RÉSUMÉ
We studied contractile responses of isolated airway smooth muscle segments from rats with metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome was induced in rats by high-fat and high-carbohydrate diet. It was shown that metabolic syndrome was associated with an increase of bronchoconstrictor action of cholinergic receptor activator carbacholine (0.1-100 µM) and a decrease of the dilatory effect of ß2-adrenoreceptor activator salbutamol (0.1-100 µM). The observed effects of agonists are epithelium-dependent. Disorders in contractile activity in the airway smooth muscles were accompanied by bronchial epithelium destruction, immune inflammation in the bronchial wall, muscular and peribronchial adipose tissue hypertrophy.
