Cadherin‐26 Facilitates Transepithelial Migration of Eosinophils in Eosinophilic Chronic Rhinosinusitis

open access: yesInternational Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (eCRSwNP) is characterized by persistent sinonasal inflammation and marked eosinophilic infiltration. Although the relationship between eosinophils and NP formation has been extensively studied, the mechanisms governing eosinophil transepithelial migration into the nasal mucosa ...

Bronchoalveolar Lavage (BAL) and Tropical Lung Disease

open access: yesRevista Portuguesa de Pneumologia, 2007
The advent of fiberoptic bronchoscopy permitted bronchoalveolar (BAL) to become an easily performed well-tolerated diagnostic and investigative tool. The technique has opened up a helpful new window to the lungs.

Microarray detection of human parainfluenzavirus 4 infection associated with respiratory failure in an immunocompetent adult. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A pan-viral DNA microarray, the Virochip (University of California, San Francisco), was used to detect human parainfluenzavirus 4 (HPIV-4) infection in an immunocompetent adult presenting with a life-threatening acute respiratory illness.

Deficiency of DEK proto‐oncogene alleviates allergic rhinitis by inhibiting RhoA/Ezrin‐mediated mitochondrial fission

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Schematic diagram of the mechanism of DEK regulating RhoA activation Ezrin. Upon house dust mite (HDM) stimulation, HDM‐specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) and inflammatory factors such as interleukin 4 (IL‐4), IL‐5, IL‐13, and eosinophils increased in the nasal mucosa.

New approaches to treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with Colla corii asini

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Colla corii asini improves chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) treatment through anti‐inflammatory, antioxidant, immune‐modulatory, and lung‐nourishing effects, addressing current therapeutic challenges via multitarget mechanisms. Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death and disability ...

Molecular dynamics of the host response to Streptococcus pneumoniae pneumonia in baboons

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Using an established, clinically relevant nonhuman primate model of S. pneumoniae pneumonia, this study aims to identify novel potential molecular diagnostic and therapeutic targets using peripheral blood bulk transcriptomic, unbiased proteomic, and cytokine measurements. The constructed models were highly accurate in classifying bacterial pneumonia in
