Abstract

There is now recognized that the autonomic innervation of airways consists of classic adrenergic and cholinergic nerves as well as of a “third” – nonadrenergic noncholinergic (NANC) – nervous system. Taking into account its complex regulatory role can be crucial for better understanding of various phenomena attributable to bronchial asthma.
