Factor H preserves alternative complement function during ARDS, linked to improved survival

open access: yesERJ Open Research, 2023
Background Effective regulation of complement activation may be crucial to preserving complement function during acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Factor H is the primary negative regulator of the alternative pathway of complement.

Research Progress of Ferroptosis in Acute Lung Injury [PDF]

open access: yesZhongguo quanke yixue, 2023
Ferroptosis, a novel programmed cell death characterized by intracellular accumulation of lipid peroxides, has played an important role in a wide range of diseases. Acute lung injury is a critical illness caused by several reasons, and the mortality rate

Pediatric acute lung injury [PDF]

open access: yesPaediatric Respiratory Reviews, 2007
Among ventilated children, the incidence of acute lung injury (ALI) was 9%; of that latter group 80% developed the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The population-based prevalence of pediatric ARDS was 5.5 cases/100.000 inhabitants.

Interleukin-36 Cytokines in Infectious and Non-Infectious Lung Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
The IL-36 family of cytokines were identified in the early 2000’s as a new subfamily of the IL-1 cytokine family, and since then, the role of IL-36 cytokines during various inflammatory processes has been characterized.

Imaging of Acute Lung Injury [PDF]

open access: yesRadiologic Clinics of North America, 2016
Acute lung injury (ALI) is the clinical syndrome associated with histopathologic diffuse alveolar damage. It is a common cause of acute respiratory symptoms and admission to the intensive care unit. Diagnosis of ALI is typically based on clinical and radiographic criteria; however, because these criteria can be nonspecific, diagnostic uncertainty is ...

FBXO17 promotes cell proliferation through activation of Akt in lung adenocarcinoma cells

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2018
Background The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, mediated in part, by ubiquitin E3 ligases, is critical in regulating cellular processes such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, and migration.

Phagocytosis is a primary determinant of pulmonary clearance of clinical Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionKlebsiella pneumoniae (Kp) is a common cause of hospital-acquired pneumonia. Although previous studies have suggested that evasion of phagocytic uptake is a virulence determinant of Kp, few studies have examined phagocytosis sensitivity in ...

The Beta Agonist Lung Injury TrIal (BALTI) : prevention trial protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: Acute lung injury complicates approximately 25-30% of subjects undergoing oesophagectomy. Experimental studies suggest that treatment with beta agonists may prevent the development of acute lung injury by decreasing inflammatory cell ...

Simvastatin reduces endotoxin-induced acute lung injury by decreasing neutrophil recruitment and radical formation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Treatment of acute lung injury (ALI) remains an unsolved problem in intensive care medicine. As simvastatin exerts protective effects in inflammatory diseases we explored its effects on development of ALI and due to the importance of neutrophils in ALI ...
