Airway Epithelium Dysfunction in Cystic Fibrosis and COPD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease caused by mutations in the CFTR gene, whereas chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is mainly caused by environmental factors (mostly cigarette smoking) on a genetically susceptible background.

Equine models in translational medicine: A comparative approach to human health

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This diagram summarizes and contrasts rodent and equine models, outlining their strengths, limitations, and applications. Horses offer naturally occurring diseases, genetic and physiological similarities to humans, and suitability for longitudinal and clinical‐scale studies.

The impact of early-life exposure to air-borne environmental insults on the function of the airway epithelium in asthma

open access: yes, 2016
The airway epithelium is both a physical barrier protecting the airways from environmental insults and a significant component of the innate immune response.

Spatial Cell Death and Oxidative Stress Dynamics in Gas Plasma‐Treated Tumor Tissues

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the four experimental models to study tissue penetration and oxidation. Four tissue models were used. Human pancreatic cancer cells were grown on the chorioallantois membrane of chicken embryos and gas plasma‐treated in ovo, murine colorectal tumor tissue was gas plasma‐exposed ex vivo, murine squamous cell carcinoma cells ...

Morphometric analysis of postnatal lung development in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica): An ultrastructural study

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract An ultrastructural morphometric analysis of the postnatal development of the lung in the gray short‐tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica) has been conducted to evaluate the morphofunctional status of this poorly developed marsupial lung immediately following parturition.

Innervation of the tubarial glands: A hypothesis‐driven anatomical review

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tubarial glands have been described as a macroscopic bilateral glandular complex in the posterolateral nasopharynx near the torus tubarius and the pharyngeal opening of the Eustachian tube. Since their recognition on prostate‐specific membrane antigen‐based imaging, their anatomical classification has remained debated, with converging ...

Preterm birth: Born too soon for the developing airway epithelium?

open access: yes, 2019
© 2018 Elsevier Ltd. Birth prior to term interrupts the normal development of the respiratory system and consequently results in poor respiratory outcomes that persist throughout childhood.

Essential embryology for the Canadian pathologists’ assistant

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Pathologists' assistants (PAs) are pivotal in healthcare, conducting autopsies and examining tissues under a pathologist's guidance. Embryology knowledge is crucial for PAs to accurately assess anomalies and identify pathologies. Yet, it is often overlooked in academic PA training programs.

In vivo models of human airway epithelium repair and regeneration

open access: yes, 2005
Despite an efficient defence system, the airway surface epithelium, in permanent contact with the external milieu, is frequently injured by inhaled pollutants, microorganisms and viruses.

Analysis of interstitial lung disease in pharmacovigilance databases: Coding challenges and interpretation biases—An update

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aim Clinically, interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a heterogeneous group of respiratory disorders. Due to their low incidence, pharmacovigilance database analysis is useful to detect them. Precise diagnosis is challenging as well as coding in these databases. Query criteria are among the key elements for a good signal detection.
