Mucociliary clearance (MCC), which exists in many systems, is the first defensive mechanism of the human body. Nasal MCC has an important role in transporting the secretions of the nasal cavity and
Otitis Media with Effusion, Development of Animal Model: Literature Review
TLDR
Althought different animal models had been established as model, none of them were able to explain in detail about the disease physiology in animal and further more research is needed to develop a valid animal model of otitis media with effusion.
Eustachian Tube Dysfunction, Eosinophilic Otitis Media, Endolymphatic Hydrops, and the Role of Allergic Rhinitis
TLDR
Current evidence supporting the relationship between allergies and eustachian tube dysfunction (ETD), eosinophilic otitis media (EOM), and endolymphatic hydrops is summarized and reviewed.
Immunoglobulins and Transcription Factors in Otitis Media
TLDR
B cell leukemia/lymphoma-6 and paired box gene 5 (Pax-5) suppress antibody production, whereas B lymphocyte inducer of maturation program 1 (Blimp-1 and X-box binding protein 1 (XBP-1) promote antibody production during immune responses in patients with otitis media.

Toll-Like Receptors: Expression and Roles in Otitis Media
TLDR
Inappropriate TLR expression, or delayed or absent induction, are associated with the occurrence, recurrence, chronicization, and complications of otitis media.
Extrapulmonary Surfactant Therapy: Review of Available Data and Research/Development Issues
TLDR
This work comprehensively review the data about surfactant biology and pharmacology in organs other than the lung, especially focusing in the more promising Surfactant extrapulmonary roles.
Lung Surfactant Lipids Provide Immune Protection Against Haemophilus influenzae Respiratory Infection
TLDR
Administration of the hydrophobic fraction of lung surfactant in vivo accelerated bacterial clearance in a mouse model of NTHi pulmonary infection is supported, supporting the notion that the lipid component of lung Surfactant protects against N THi infection.

TLDR
Whether the short-term goals elaborated in the last report were achieved are determined, and updated goals to guide future otitis media research are proposed.

Nebulized surfactant as a treatment choice for otitis media with effusion: an experimental study in the rabbit
TLDR
A significant improvement in the negative middle-ear pressure after nebulized surfactant treatment and the histological findings shown in this study can support the theory that surface-active agents are of importance in eustachian tube function even under pathologic conditions, such as OME.
