Exacerbation of Previously Undiagnosed Bird Fancier’s Lung by Pembrolizumab Therapy [PDF]

Chest, 2019
Immune checkpoint inhibitors have revolutionized cancer therapy. As the use of checkpoint inhibitors becomes widespread, the early recognition and treatment of their unique spectrum of adverse effects, called immune-related adverse events, become critical.

Distinct Roles of Wnt/β‐Catenin Signaling in the Pathogenesis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease and Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Mediators of Inflammation, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
Wnt signaling pathways are tightly controlled under a physiological condition, under which they play key roles in many biological functions, including cell fate specification and tissue regeneration. Increasing lines of evidence recently demonstrated that a dysregulated activation of Wnt signaling, particularly the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling, was involved

Analyses of the Polymorphisms in E. coli Strains Associated with Heat-Shock Proteins Hsp 55 Isolated from Bird Feathers [PDF]

, 2018
The bird feathers are often colonized by pathogenic microorganisms including mainly bacteria of the E. coli species. There is a grooving evidence that due to colonization of the pathogenic bacteria after slaughter material may lead to different zoonosis ...

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

Respirology, 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

Management of hypersensivity pneumonitis

Clinical and Translational Allergy, Volume 3, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Abstract Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) is an interstitial lung disease due to a combined type III and IV reaction with a granulomatous inflammation, caused by cytotoxic delayed hypersensitivity lymphocytes, in a Th1/Th17 milieu, chaperoned by a deficient suppressor function of T regulatory cells.

The Contribution of Allergen‐Specific IgG to the Development of Th2‐Mediated Airway Inflammation

Journal of Allergy, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
In both human asthmatics and animal models of allergy, allergen‐specific IgG can contribute to Th2‐mediated allergic inflammation. Mouse models have elucidated an important role for IgG and Fc‐gamma receptor (FcγR) signaling on antigen presenting cells (APC) for the induction of airway inflammation.

Pigeon breeder's disease: the clinical spectrum and humoral response; an investigation of the nature and extent of extrinsic allergic alveolitis due to pigeon-derived antigens among pigeon fanciers continuing to pursue the pastime, with particular reference to early clinical and humoral-mediated responses following exposure [PDF]

, 1986
This thesis examines the relationships between the clinical manifestations of Pigeon Breeder's Disease among active pigeon fanciers, and the associated humoral responses to pigeon -derived antigens.
