Cellular components of the bronchovascular barrier have been studied in human lungs obtained after death of some patients with acute and chronic lung inflammatory diseases, hypertonic disease, atherosclerosis and chronic glomerulonephritis. Certain oxidative-reductive and hydrolytic enzymes, including NAD-, NADP- diaphorases, lactic dehydrogenase, acid and alkaline monophosphoesterase, ATP-ase, adenylate cyclase and nonspecific esterase were evaluated quantitatively after the histochemical processing of the specimens for the above reactions. Correlation analysis was performed for the bronchial epithelium, endotheliocytes, lymphocytes, plasma and mast cells, as well as macrophages and polymorphonuclear leucocytes. The results showed that there was a significant shift in some of the measured enzymic activities. Moreover, the correlations between different quantitative data were noted and these correlations changed with age. The increase in "rigidity" of the correlations in the elements of the bronchovascular barrier has been demonstrated during the process of ageing.
