Official Title: Clinical Evidence of pH Dependent ß2 Adrenergic Transport Mechanisms in the Airway

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study was to determine if airway pH has an effect on albuterol-induced vasodilation in the airway. Methods: Ten healthy volunteers performed the following respiratory maneuvers: quiet breathing, hypocapnic hyperventilation, hypercapnic hyperventilation, and eucapnic hyperventilation
