Soluble Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule-1 (sVCAM-1) Is Elevated in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid of Patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. [PDF]
INTRODUCTION:Pulmonary vascular endothelial activation has been implicated in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), yet little is known about the presence and role of endothelial activation markers in the alveolar space in ARDS.

Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid cytological findings in healthy Amiata donkeys [PDF]
Background: The approach to respiratory diseases in donkeys is similar to that for horses, nevertheless bronchoalveolar fluid (BALF) and tracheal wash (TW) cytology in this species have been described only a few times in the literature.

Blood and Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing in Pneumonia
Background Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) has made a revolution in the mode of pathogen identification. We decided to explore the diagnostic value of blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) as mNGS samples in pneumonia.

HLA predictions from the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid samples of five patients at the early stage of the Wuhan seafood market COVID-19 outbreak [PDF]
We are in the midst of a global viral pandemic, one with no cure and a high mortality rate. The Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) gene complex plays a critical role in host immunity. We predicted HLA class I and II alleles from the transcriptome sequencing data prepared from the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid samples of five patients at the early stage of ...

Exosomes and their roles in the chemoresistance of pancreatic cancer
Despite the development of multiple promising chemotherapeutic agents as recommended first‐line treatment for PC, the therapeutic efficacy is largely limited by unwanted drug resistance.Exploring the relation between exosomes and chemoresistance may be conducive to understanding molecular mechanisms and taking effective measures to reduce the ...

Abstract The bioequivalence of a generic fudosteine tablet vs a brand‐named fudosteine tablet under fasting and fed conditions was evaluated in this study. This randomized, open‐label, single‐dose, 4‐way replicate, crossover, bioequivalence study included 64 healthy Chinese subjects (fasting cohort, n = 32; fed cohort, n = 32) who were assigned to ...

Modern surgical (technical) possibilities enable pleural macrophage isolation and analyses regardless the person`s age. Transcriptome profiling of macrophages from healthy or sick individuals revealed that these cells express high levels of metallothioneins, metal‐binding proteins that are involved in heavy metal detoxification, antioxidative defense ...

In this work, we demonstrated that PUM70 specifically suppressed LPS‐mediated inflammatory responses. Notably, PUM70 treatment inhibited LPS‐induced lung damage, pro‐inflammatory cytokine production, and reduced macrophage infiltration in the lungs. Mechanistically, PUM70 suppressed LPS‐induced inflammation and oxidative stress via the Nrf2/HO‐1 and ...
