Novel molecular pathologies in asthma and COPD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Both asthma and COPD are respiratory diseases and a major global health problem with increasing prevalence. Airway inflammation is a characteristic and important hallmark in both diseases and therefore, in the past, investigations focused strongly on ...

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 ...

Compliant hydrogel cuff coating with real‐time pressure monitoring and antibiofilm capabilities for ventilator‐associated pneumonia prophylaxis

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
A soft‐compliant hydrogel cuff coating combines real‐time pressure monitoring with intrinsic antibacterial activity for prophylaxis of ventilator‐associated pneumonia. A flexible pressure‐sensing patch is embedded in the coating to enable wireless dynamic monitoring of endotracheal cuff pressure through Bluetooth.

Loss of POGLUT2/3‐mediated O‐glucosylation produces lung and aortic phenotypes reminiscent of fibrillin1 mutants

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fibrillins provide a scaffold for elastic fiber formation, which enables lung recoil and aortic compliance. Abnormal fibrillin microfibrils, as in Marfan syndrome, lead to enlarged alveoli, vascular stiffening, and aneurysms. Our earlier studies suggested that fibrillin function depends on O‐glucosylation of its epidermal growth ...

Biomarkers of lung congestion and injury in acute heart failure

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 781-789, April 2025.
Abstract Acute heart failure (AHF) classification and management are primarily based on lung congestion and/or hypoperfusion. The quantification of the vascular and tissue lung damage is not standard practice though biomarkers of lung injury may play a relevant role in this context.

Tracheal wash culture is not associated with bronchial infection, remodelling or inflammation in horses with asthma

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Antimicrobials are commonly prescribed for the treatment of equine asthma, despite limited evidence supporting their use. Tracheal wash (TW) bacterial culture results are known to influence antimicrobial prescription decisions. Objectives To determine whether a positive TW bacterial culture in horses with asthma is associated with ...
