No significant correlation was observed between the magnitude of contractions and numbers of eosinophils, neutrophils, lymphocytes, plasma cells, total cells or percentage intact epithelium. We conclude that it is unlikely that the variability in response to PAF in human isolated airways is related to the variability in inflammatory cell numbers or to the presence of epithelium. Thus, the contraction induced by PAF is probably not mediated via the release of a secondary mediator from the particular cells examined in this study.
