Severe Hypoxia Reduces Adenylyl Cyclase 6 Expression and Function in Bronchial Epithelial Cells
Adenylyl cyclase 6 (AC6) plays an important role in the generation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in the lungs. In cystic fibrosis, excessive mucus production and reduced mucociliary clearance create regions of severe hypoxia that can affect cell functions.

Impact of
For decades, fungi have been recognized as associated with asthma and other reactive airway diseases. In contrast to type I-mediated allergies caused by pollen, fungi cause a large number of allergic diseases such as allergic bronchopulmonary mycoses ...

ABSTRACT Background Chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) is a significant, yet often overlooked, sequela of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), particularly in resource‐limited settings. Data on the seroprevalence of Aspergillus infection in Senegal is absent, and diagnostic capacity is limited. This study aimed to determine the seroprevalence of Aspergillus‐

ABSTRACT Kartagener's Syndrome (KS), a rare autosomal recessive disorder and a subset of Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD), is characterized by chronic sinusitis, bronchiectasis, and, in approximately 50% of cases, situs inversus. This condition arises from genetic mutations that impair motile cilia function, leading to defective mucociliary clearance ...
