title: [The preventative effects of protein tyrosine kinase on the inflammation and airway remondeling in lung of guinea pigs with bronchial asthma].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the effects of protein tyrosine kinase on the inflammation and airway remodeling in lung of guinea pigs with bronchial asthma.
  
  
  METHODS
  30 adult male guinea pigs were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=3): control group (C group), asthmatic group(A group)and genistein group (B group). Asthmatic model was established by ovalbumin intraperitoneal injection and ovalbumin inhalation. The total cell and the proportion of inflammatory cell in bronchial alveolar lavage fluid(BALF), inflammatory cell infiltration and index of remodeling of bronchiole were measured, respectively. The expression of p-tyrosine in lung tissue was examined by immunohistochemistry.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The total cell and proportion of eosinophil in BALF of A group were significantly higher than that of C group (P < 0.01), but compared with A group, the total cell and proportion of eosinophil in BALF of B group were much lower (P < 0.01). The number of eosinophile and lymphocyte of bronchiole in A group were significantly higher than that of C group (P < 0.01), but compared with A group, the number of eosinophile and lymphocyte in bronchiole of B group were much lower (P < 0.01). Compared with A group, the remodeling of bronchiole of B group was significantly relieved (P <0.01), there was no difference between B and C group (P > 0.05). Immunohistochemistry indicated that in A group the p-tyrosine was more positively expressed at the bronchial smooth muscle, bronchial epithelium, smooth muscle of vessel and inflammatory cell, especially at smooth muscle of bronchi and vessel and inflammatory cell than that of C group (P <0.01), there was no difference between B group and C group (P > 0.05).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  PTK played a key role in inflammation and bronchial remodeling in lung of guinea pigs with bronchial asthma. The Protein tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein could prevent and inhibit the inflammation and bronchial remodeling in lung of guinea pigs with bronchial asthma.
