metyrapone and Asthma

metyrapone has been researched along with Asthma in 37 studies

Metyrapone: An inhibitor of the enzyme STEROID 11-BETA-MONOOXYGENASE. It is used as a test of the feedback hypothalamic-pituitary mechanism in the diagnosis of CUSHING SYNDROME.
metyrapone : An aromatic ketone that is 3,3-dimethylbutan-2-one in which the methyl groups at positions 1 and 4 are replaced by pyridin-3-yl groups. A steroid 11beta-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.15.4) inhibitor, it is used in the diagnosis of adrenal insufficiency.

Asthma: A form of bronchial disorder with three distinct components: airway hyper-responsiveness (RESPIRATORY HYPERSENSITIVITY), airway INFLAMMATION, and intermittent AIRWAY OBSTRUCTION. It is characterized by spasmodic contraction of airway smooth muscle, WHEEZING, and dyspnea (DYSPNEA, PAROXYSMAL).

( Sherman, B; Waschek, J; Weinberger, M; Wyatt, R, 1978)
" Maternal treatment with dexamethasone on day 15 of pregnancy mimicked the stress effect and reproduced the AI and AHR outcomes, whereas blockade of the stress-induced corticosterone surge with metyrapone pretreatment of pregnant mice abrogated the effect."3.80Maternal stress during pregnancy increases neonatal allergy susceptibility: role of glucocorticoids. ( Fedulov, AV; Kobzik, L; Lim, R, 2014)
"Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal function in a well-defined, carefully selected group of 25 patients with extrinsic asthma was assessed by measuring plasma levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and of 11-deoxycorticol after administration of metyrapone and by measuring the level of cortisol following stimulation with cosyntropin."3.66Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal function in extrinsic asthma.
