This raises questions about whether such words are like words in English, or whether they are more like phrases. In the following, we examine Wubuy speakers' knowledge of word-internal morphological complexity in a word-preference task, in which we test the acceptability of complex words into which artificial pauses have been embedded at a range of morphological junctures. The results show that participants prefer unmodified words and words with pauses inserted at semantically transparent morphological junctures over words with pauses at other junctures. There is no preference for unmodified words over words with pauses at transparent junctures. These results suggest that speakers have access to some word-internal morphological information, and that complex words may share characteristics of both words and phrases in, for instance, English. Asthma outcomes is aggravated in obese patients. Excess of methylglyoxal (MGO) in obese/diabetic patients has been associated with diverse detrimental effects on cell function. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of long-term oral intake of MGO on ovalbumin-induced eosinophil inflammation. Male C57/Bl6 mice received 0.5% MGO in the drinking water for 12 weeks. Mice were sensitized and challenged with ovalbumin (OVA), and at 48 h thereafter, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and lungs were collected for cell counting, morphological analysis, and ELISA, mRNA expressions and DHE assays. In MGO-treated mice, OVA challenge significantly increased the peribronchiolar infiltrations of inflammatory cells and eosinophils compared with control group. Higher levels of IL-4, IL-5, and eotaxin in BAL fluid were also detected in MGO compared with control group. In addition, lung tissue of MGO-treated mice displayed s
