Abstract:
Cough variant asthma(CVA)is a common respiratory disease in clinical practice.The only or main clinical manifestation of CVA is cough.It has similar pathological pathogenesis with asthma,but its pathological changes are sligher than asthma.The research of CVA drugs needs appropriate CVA animal models as the research basis.Based on the characteristics of CVA clinical diseases and syndromes of traditional Chinese and western medicine,combined with the clinical diagnostic criteria of traditional Chinese and western medicine,the CVA animal models are combed and analyzed,in order to provide references for the establishment,evaluation and application of CVA animal models.Chemical induction was used to prepare the commonly used animal models of cough variant asthma,including mice,rats and guinea pigs.The selection of sensitizing agent,adjuvant,activator and cough inducing agent was basically the same in the animal models of cough variant asthma,but there were significant differences in the selection of sensitizing method,sensitizing and stimulating dose,modeling cycle and detection index.Western medicine has clear diagnostic criteria for cough variant asthma,while traditional Chinese medicine can classify cough-variant asthma into different types according to different syndromes.At present,the commonly used animal models of cough variant asthma are highly consistent with the diagnostic criteria of western medicine,but not well consistent with the diagnostic criteria of traditional Chinese medicine,which is insufficient to reflect the symptoms of traditional Chinese medicine.The establishment of CVA animal model combining disease and syndrome,including medical syndromes into the model evaluation criteria,meets the requirements of TCM research on CVA animal model.In model evaluation,behavioral manifestations,HE staining of lung tissue,cell counts in BALF and lung function indicators should be considered in various aspects,and airway excitation test,alveolar lavage fluid eosinophil count,behavioral and other aspects should be distinguished from asthma.
