1
Lectures on respiratory physiology Defense Systems of the Lung
2
Atmospheric Pollutants Carbon monoxide Sulfur oxides Nitrogen oxides Hydrocarbons Particulates Photochemical oxidants
3
Perfect Lung Types and sources of pollutants
4
Photochemical Oxidants hydrocarbons nitrogen oxides ozone, peroxyacyl nitrate, aldehydes, acrolein, etc. sunlight
5
Perfect Lung Examples of smog
6
Effects of cigarette smoke Carbon monoxide causes up to 10% hemoglobin “Tars” cause bronchial carcinoma Smoking causes chronic bronchitis, emphysema, bronchial carcinoma and coronary heart disease Insidious effects of tobacco advertising
7
Cancer death rates (male) from 1930 to 2004
8
Effect of single cigarette on airways
9
Behavior of Aerosols in the Lung Deposition Clearance
10
Perfect Lung Mechanisms of deposition of aerosol
11
Perfect Lung Sites of aerosol deposition
12
Perfect Lung Mechanisms of deposition of aerosol
13
Accumulation of dust in a coal-miner’s lung
14
Perfect Lung Mechanisms of deposition of aerosol
15
Clearance of Deposited Particles Mucociliary system Alveolar macrophages
16
Clearance of deposited particles
17
Mucociliary escalator
18
Airway wall showing a mucous gland
19
Normal airway (above); Enlarged mucous glands (below)

Mucociliary escalator
22
Gel layer of the mucus above the sol layer
23
Cilia just touching the gel layer
24
Ciliary action
25
Structure of microtubule; diagram (left), EM (right)
26
Impairment of Normal Mucociliary Function Mucus:too much, or change in composition, e.g. chronic bronchitis, cystic fibrosis, asthma Cilia:paralysis by toxic gases bronchial epithelium destroyed congenital defect of ciliary motion

Alveolar Macrophage
28
Alveolar macrophage in the corner of an alveolus
29
Impairment of Normal Macrophage Function Inhaled gases such as ozone, cigarette smoke Toxic particles such as silica Alveolar hypoxia, radiation, corticosteroids, alcohol ingestion
