Immunotherapy strategies and prospects for acute lung injury: Focus on immune cells and cytokines
Acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) is a disastrous condition, which can be caused by a wide range of diseases, such as pneumonia, sepsis, traumas, and the most recent, COVID-19.

Leukocyte sequestration in pulmonary microvessels and lung injury following systemic complement activation in rabbits [PDF]
Inflammatory reactions are associated with sequestration of leukocytes in the lung. Complement activation leads to accumulation of leukocytes in alveolar septa and alveoli, to lung edema and hemorrhage.

A wide variety of insults can produce acute lung damage, inclusive of those that injure the lungs directly. The clinical syndrome of acute onset respiratory distress, dyspnea, and bilateral infiltrates is referred to as acute respiratory distress syndrome.

CpG oligonucleotide activates Toll-like receptor 9 and causes lung inflammation in vivo [PDF]
Background Bacterial DNA containing motifs of unmethylated CpG dinucleotides (CpG-ODN) initiate an innate immune response mediated by the pattern recognition receptor Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9).

Lung volume recruitment maneuvers and respiratory system mechanics in mechanically ventilated mice [PDF]
The study aim was to establish how recruitment maneuvers (RMs) influence lung mechanics and to determine whether RMs produce lung injury. Healthy BALB/c mice were allocated to receive positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) at 2 or 6 cmH2O and volume ...

Hyperoxia and acute lung injury
to the editor: The review by Matute-Bello et al. ([15][1]) has misleading and potentially dangerous statements concerning the role of hyperoxia in human acute lung injury (ALI). Table 4 states “in normal human lungs, 100% oxygen has not induced lung injury … ” The text states that ...

Macrolides for Acute Lung Injury [PDF]
In this issue of CHEST (see page 1153), Walkey and Wiener1 examine the association between receipt of a macrolide antibiotic and mortality in patients with acute lung injury (ALI). The authors used existing, publicly available data from the Acute Respiratory Distress Network (ARDSNet) Lisofylline and Respiratory Management of Acute Lung Injury (LARMA ...
