In pressure rhinometry studies, aerosolized compound 48\/80 (0.1\u20133.0%), a mast cell liberator, increased nasal airway resistance (NAR) 1.2 \u00b1 0.6, 5.8 \u00b1 0.5, 8.6 \u00b1 1.1 and 7.9 \u00b1 1.5 cmH\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    O\u00b7L\/minute, respectively. Increases in NAR produced by compound 48\/80 were associated with a 395% increase in histamine concentration found in the nasal lavage fluid. Pretreatment with the \u03b1-adrenoreceptor agonist, phenylpropanolamine (PPA; 0.1\u20133.0 mg\/kg, i.v.), and the NO synthetase inhibitor, N\n                    <jats:sup>G<\/jats:sup>\n                    -nitro-L-arginine (L-NAME; 10 mg\/kg, i.v.) attenuated the increases in NAR produced by compound 48\/80. The histamine H\n                    <jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\n                    antagonist chlorpheniramine (1.0 mg\/kg, i.v.) and the H\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    antagonist, ranitidine (1.0 mg\/kg, i.v.) had no decongestant activity. Also without decongestant activity were the muscarinic antagonist atropine, the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin, and the 5-HT blocker methysergide. Aerosolized histamine (0.1\u20131.0%) also produced a dose dependent increase in NAR. In studies using acoustic rhinometry (AcR), intranasal application of compound 48\/80 (0.1\u20131.0%) elicited pronounced decreases in nasal cavity volumes and minimum cross-sectional area (A\n                    <jats:sub>min<\/jats:sub>\n                    ). Pretreatment with PPA (3 mg\/kg, i.v. or 10 mg\/kg, p.o.) attenuated the decreases in nasal volume and A\n                    <jats:sub>min<\/jats:sub>\n                    . The effects of topical intranasal histamine (0.1\u20131.0%) on nasal geometry were similar to compound 48\/80. We conclude that the cat is a useful model for evaluating the pharmacological actions of potential nasal decongestants. Furthermore, we also conclude that AcR is a useful method for noninvasive assessment of nasal patency in a preclinical setting.\n
