Abstract

Enzymes degrading peptides may participate in the regulation of the cough reflex. Thus, decreases in enzyme activities may enhance cough reflex and a decrease in cough reflex may lead to aspiration pneumonia. Down- and up-regulation of cough reflex is important for the understanding of cough reflex.
