Two-dimensional Electrophoresis of Dog Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid Proteins.

, 1990
Proteins of dog bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, obtained by washing the epithelial lining layer of lungs with phosphate-buffered saline, were separated by two-dimensional electrophoresis.

AIDS patients have increased surfactant protein D but normal mannose binding lectin levels in lung fluid. [PDF]

, 2007
BACKGROUND: Surfactant protein D (SP-D) and Mannose Binding Lectin (MBL) are collectins that have opsonic and immunoregulatory functions, are found in lung fluid and interact with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

Increased plasma microbial tDR‐1 in at‐risk individuals is associated with decreased conversion to clinical rheumatoid arthritis and reduces an in vitro macrophage type 1 interferon response

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Background Microbial small RNAs (sRNAs) can regulate human genes. Higher plasma concentrations of microbial tRNA‐derived RNA‐1 (tDR‐1) were previously associated with lower rheumatoid arthritis (RA) disease activity. This study examined whether tDR‐1 concentrations differ in anti‐cyclic citrullinated peptide‐3 positive (CCP3+) at‐risk individuals (ARI)

Candidacidal factors in murine bronchoalveolar lavage fluid [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1987
Respiratory secretions provide an efficient method for protecting the large surface area of the lower respiratory tract. To determine whether lung secretions contribute to antifungal defenses, we tested bronchoalveolar lavage fluid for fungicidal activity.

Early clinical pharmacology evaluation of the novel anti‐inflammatory macrolide, glasmacinal (EP395): tolerability, pharmacokinetics and drug interactions

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims This work assessed the pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability of glasmacinal (EP395, an oral anti‐inflammatory macrolide with negligible antimicrobial activity in development for COPD treatment) in two healthy participant trials: ‘first‐in‐human’ (FIH) and ‘drug–drug‐interaction’ (DDI).

Detection of viable Staphylococcus aureus/methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and antimicrobial resistance directly by PMA-TaqMan qPCR from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid

BMC Pulmonary Medicine
Background Timely detection of viable Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA)/ methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and antimicrobial resistance are crucial for the treatment of patients with pulmonary infection.

Electronic nose analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid

European Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2010
Eur J Clin Invest 2010; 41 (1): 52–58AbstractBackground  Electronic nose (E‐nose) technology has been successfully used to diagnose a number of microbial infections. We have investigated the potential use of an E‐nose for the diagnosis of ventilator‐associated pneumonia (VAP) by detecting micro‐organisms in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid in a ...

Human circulating eosinophils secrete macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF). Potential role in asthma

, 1998
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a potent proinflammatory mediator that has been shown to potentiate lethal endotoxemia and to play a potentially important regulatory role in human acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
