Transient Receptor Potential (TRP) Channels in Airway Toxicity and Disease: An Update
Our respiratory system is exposed to toxicants and pathogens from both sides: the airways and the vasculature. While tracheal, bronchial and alveolar epithelial cells form a natural barrier in the airways, endothelial cells protect the lung from perfused

Ruptures of trachea and bronchi diagnosed by virtual bronchoscopy with multidetector computed tomography and fiberoptic bronchoscopy - advantages and shortcomings of methods [PDF]
Introduction/Objective. Fiberoptic bronchoscopy often is too aggressive, which requires the use of other noninvasive diagnostic methods. The study presents research results on the diagnostic capabilities of virtual bronchoscopy with multidetector ...

The comparison of the lengths and diameters of main bronchi measured from two-dimensional and three-dimensional images in the same patients [PDF]
BackgroundRecently, multi-planar reconstruction of the three-dimensional (3D) spiral chest CT scan has demonstrated superiority in the evaluation of the tracheobronchial tree.

Inhaled aerosol dose distribution between proximal bronchi and lung periphery [PDF]
Modern inhaled drug discovery programs assess dose delivery to proximal and distal airways using rudimentary imaging indices, where relative deposition is estimated by generically defined 'central' and 'peripheral' lung regions.

Injuries of the trachea and bronchi [PDF]
Traumatic rupture of the trachea or the bronchi is reported with increasing frequency. Such rupture may follow penetrating wounds, but the common cause is blunt trauma of the throat or thorax. When the proximal trachea is damaged other cervical structures are usually involved.

COVID-19: the difference between the nose and the lung
To the Editor An elegant study reported dysmorphic cells and syncytia in the deceased's lungs for COVID-19. The authors reasonably considered that most of these syncytia-forming cells were pneumocytes, as identified by specific biomarkers.

Left Bronchial Isomerism with Right-Sided Tracheal Bronchus: A Rare Case Report
The tracheal bronchus is a congenital bronchial branching anomaly defined as an aberrant bronchus arising in either the trachea or a main bronchus. Left bronchial isomerism is characterized by two bilobed lungs, bilateral long main bronchi, and both ...
