The present study determined the effects of cotton smoke inhalation on the functioning of alveolar macrophages (mö). Smoke inhalation led to dose-dependent impairment of respiratory gas exchange by 48 h postexposure and pulmonary edema by 96 h. Maximal effects were observed in animals ventilated with 54 breaths of cotton smoke (3-min exposure, 18 breaths/min). Macrophages were obtained at 48 h postexposure by bronchoalveolar lavage of rabbits subjected to 54 breaths of smoke or room air (control). Phagocytosis of opsonized bacteria and adherence to solid substratum were reduced in smoke-exposed mö. Smoke inhalation primed mö for release of tumor necrosis factor-á (TNF-á) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Smoke-exposed mö were also primed for TNF-á release induced by phorbol myristate acetate, which suggests that the priming event occurred downstream of protein kinase C activation in the signal transduction pathway. Further, smoke exposure attenuated the inhibitory effects of phosphodiesterase inhibitors on LPS-induced TNF-á release. Thus, the priming event may be mediated through cAMP and/or protein kinase A. The data indicate that cotton smoke inhalation suppresses the antimicrobial activities of alveolar mö and can lead to excessive mö production of TNF-á. These mö effects would be expected to contribute to the pathophysiological abnormalities associated with smoke inhalation injury.

None of this information is relevant to my specific situation...

I kept the tiny bottle in which the hash was stored in a medicine tube and covered it with cotton balls so it wouldn't rattle inside. Somehow (and really, how this happened is completely beyond me), some hash spilled out and soaked one of the cotton balls.

I've done it before. It works. It gets you high. It does not taste good. It is not what researchers would call healthy.
