Abstract
Based on the expression of substance P and nitric oxide synthase in airway neurons, the present study suggests that there may be substance P and NO biosynthesis and release following a peripheral activation of the afferents, there could be a triggering of substance P and NO-mediated phenomena, including those related to airway inflammation, such as plasma extravasation and vasodilatation.
