Co-modulation of T cells and B cells enhances the inhibition of inflammation in experimental hypersensitivity pneumonitis

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2022
Background Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an interstitial lung disease characterized by antigen-triggered neutrophilic exacerbations. Although CD4+ T cells are sufficient for HP pathogenesis, this never translated into efficient T cell-specific ...

Telomerase modRNA Offers a Novel RNA‐Based Approach to Treat Human Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 24, Issue 11, November 2025.
Recombinant linear and circular hTERT mRNA restore telomerase activity in primary ATII cells and ex vivo lung tissue from patients with pulmonary fibrosis, leading to telomere elongation, reduced DNA damage, and decreased senescence and fibrosis markers.

Respiratory Ill‐Health and Welding Exposures: A Canadian Cohort Study

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 68, Issue 2, Page 99-111, February 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Respiratory ill‐health in welders is well documented but without a clear indication of exposures responsible. Methods In a Canadian cohort study of welders and electrical workers, we collected self‐reports of asthma/wheeze and rhinitis at each 6‐monthly contact for up to 5 years.

Diagnosis and management of hypersensitivity pneumonitis in adults: A position statement from the Thoracic Society of Australia and New Zealand

open access: yesRespirology, Volume 29, Issue 12, Page 1023-1046, December 2024.
Abstract Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an immune‐mediated interstitial lung disease (ILD) relating to specific occupational, environmental or medication exposures. Disease behaviour is influenced by the nature of exposure and the host response, with varying degrees of lung inflammation and fibrosis seen within individuals. The differentiation of

PAS staining of bronchoalveolar lavage cells for differential diagnosis of interstital lung disease

open access: yesDiagnostic Pathology, 2009
Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) is a useful diagnostic tool in interstitial lunge diseases (ILD). However, differential cell counts are often non specific and immunocytochemistry is time consuming.

Bidirectional transfer of human cytomegalovirus strains in donor and recipient seropositive lung transplant patients

open access: yesJournal of Medical Virology, Volume 96, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract Donor and recipient human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) seropositive (D+R+) lung transplant recipients (LTRs) often harbor multiple strains of HCMV, likely due to transmitted donor (D) strains and reactivated recipient (R) strains. To date, the extent and timely occurrence of each likely source in shaping the post‐transplantation (post‐Tx) strain ...
