Epithelial cell CBF in tracheal rings of ethanol-fed rats. Rats were fed a liquid diet containing 0, 16, 26, or 36% ethanol for 5 weeks and were killed. Excised tracheal rings were assayed for ciliary beat frequency (CBF) in the absence (white bars) and presence (gray bars) of 100 μM isoproterenol (ISO) for 30 min. Bar caps represent SEM of four different animals. Data from each rat represent the average of 10 or more tracheal rings (*p ≤ 0.05 for tracheal rings treated with isoproterenol for 30 min compared with those treated with media only).
