Experimental study on lung-damaging agents:research advances / 国际药学研究杂志

ABSTRACT

Lung is the main target of lung-damaging agents(or choking agents,lung irritants)which can result in potential permanent respiratory depression,the rapid development of acute lung injury(ALI)and pulmonary edema,even death in severe cas-es. Recently,with the research progress in the pathogenesis of lung-damaging agents,numerous corresponding experimental studies were carried out and some progress were made. This paper summarizes the progress in the study of lung-damaging agents on the re-search situation,pathogenic mechanism and biomarker,to provide reference for the promotion of ALI prevention,medical antagonis-tic measures and clinical treatment.
