Research progress on the role of airway epithelial-mesenchymal transition in airway remodeling in asthma

open access: yesGuangxi Yike Daxue xuebao
Bronchial asthma is a heterogeneous disease characterized by chronic airway inflammation, reversible airflow limitation and airway remodeling. Airway remodeling is the key pathological basis for the progression of mild asthma to severe and refractory ...

Three‐dimensional geometric morphometric analysis of diaphragmatic dome motion in COPD patients

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Diaphragmatic dysfunction is a hallmark of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), especially in emphysema, where hyperinflation alters diaphragm geometry and impairs inspiratory mechanics. However, quantitative three‐dimensional (3D) assessments of diaphragmatic dome shape and motion across COPD phenotypes are limited.

Radiological Approach to Asthma and COPD-The Role of Computed Tomography

open access: yesAllergology International, 2009
Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are among the most prevalent lung diseases. In both asthma and COPD, airway inflammation leads to airway remodeling. Parenchyma of the lung is also influenced by disease conditions.

ORMDL3 Transgenic Mice Have Increased Airway Remodeling and Airway Responsiveness Characteristic of Asthma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Orosomucoid-like (ORMDL)3 has been strongly linked with asthma in genetic association studies. Because allergen challenge induces lung ORMDL3 expression in wild-type mice, we have generated human ORMDL3 zona pellucida 3 Cre (hORMDL3(zp3-Cre)) mice that ...

Comparative Transcriptional Profiling of Key Macrophage and Fibroblast Subpopulations in Rheumatoid Arthritis–Associated Lung Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) often involves extra‐articular complications, including interstitial lung disease (ILD) and/or pulmonary nodules. Transcriptomic profiling of lung tissue provides the opportunity to directly assess cell‐specific gene expression and corresponding pathway activation in different types of rheumatoid lung disease ...

Plasma proteome reflects tissue damage and clinical manifestations in patients with inflammatory myopathies

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Tissue‐specific biomarkers that are reliable and associated with clinical manifestations of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) are lacking. The blood circulation in individuals serves as a central conduit, allowing communication between tissues and facilitating clearance and recycling of tissue‐derived proteins.

Low-Dose Azithromycin Attenuates OVA-Induced Airway Remodeling and Inflammation via Down-Regulating TGF-βl Expression in RAT

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inflammation, 2013
Asthma is characteristic with chronic airway inflammation and remodeling. Azithromycin (AZM), the 15-member macrolide, is known to present an anti-inflammatory effect and is increasingly being used in the treatment of chronic inflammatory pulmonary ...

Purification of Advanced Therapeutics by Flow‐Through Pseudo‐Affinity Chromatography: Bi‐Specific mABs, Fc Fusion Proteins, and Adeno‐Associated Viruses

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Modern biopharmaceutical manufacturing requires purification platforms capable of processing structurally and functionally diverse products while addressing the challenge of removing persistent and high‐risk host cell proteins (HCPs).
