pubmed:abstractText
Histamine is the most important chemical mediator in the pathogenesis of nasal allergy. Diesel exhaust particulates (DEPs) are common air pollutants from diesel engine-powered car exhaust and cause chronic airway diseases. Recently we observed that the nasal reactivity to histamine was enhanced in diesel exhaust-exposed guinea-pigs. It was also revealed that epithelial cells and endothelial cells in the airway produce certain cytokines in response to histamine.
