-'''Bronchospasm'''  is a difficulty in breathing caused by a sudden constriction of the muscles in the walls of the bronchioles. It is caused by the release ([[degranulation]]) of substances from [[mast cells]] or [[basophil]]s under the influence of [[anaphylatoxin]]s.
+==[[Bronchospasm overview|Overview]]==
-Bronchospasm appears as the feature of [[asthma]], chronic [[bronchitis]], [[anaphylaxis]], and as a possible side-effect of the drug [[Pilocarpine]] (which is used to treat illness resulting from the ingestion of deadly nightshade as well as other things). The overactivity of the bronchioles' muscle is a result of exposure to a stimulus which under normal circumstances would cause little or no response. The resulting constriction and inflammation causes a narrowing of the airways and an increase in [[mucous]] production; this reduces the amount of [[oxygen]] that is available to the individual causing breathlessness, coughing and [[Hypoxia (medical)|hypoxia]] (that can cause [[cyanosis]]).
