Abstract

The research aim was the evaluation of transforming factor of growth β1 influence on development of structural changes in mucous membrane of bronchial tubes at severe form of bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive lung disease. It has been determined by means of histological, immunohistological and morphometric methods, that the increase of level of the transforming factor of growth β1 in cells of bronchial epithelium with subepithelial fibrosis and thickening of basilar membranes were revealed at patients with severe therapeutecally resistant form of bronchial asthma of the phenotype «the asthma with the fixed bronchial obstruction», while the raised density of macrophages exposing receptors to the transforming growth factor β1 was found at patients with chronic obstructive lung disease, that is combined with expressed perivasculars fibrosis, squamous metaplasia of bronchial epithelium.

Key words

inflammation of the respiratory system, transforming growth factor β1, bronchial wall fibrosis
