Endoscopic appearance of bronchi (a), BAL lavage cell yield (b) and histological appearance of bronchial biopsies (c). Asthmatic horses had bronchoconstriction and increased secretions in airways after asthmatic challenge, while changes in horses without asthma consisted of mild bronchoconstriction (a). In asthmatic horses, cell concentration and proportion of neutrophils was increased in BAL fluid after challenge (b), and in bronchial biopsies epithelial basophilia and influx of submucosal leukocytes was evident (c)
