Angiogenesis in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Angiogenesis is a crucial component of lung pathophysiology, not only in cancer but also in other disorders, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Age‐Dependent Correlation of Pulmonary Function Impairment and Aortic Arch Stiffness in Mice

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
This study examined the relationship between aortic arch stiffness and lung function in aging mice. Multiple linear regression modeling showed moderate to strong correlations between the rise in aortic arch stiffness and changes in lung function as the mice progressively aged.

A formula for predicting emphysema extent in combined idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema

open access: yesRespiratory Research
Background No single pulmonary function test captures the functional effect of emphysema in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Without experienced radiologists, other methods are needed to determine emphysema extent. Here, we report the development and

A Combined Model‐Based Meta‐Analysis of Aggregated and Individual FEV1 Data From Randomized COPD Trials

open access: yesCPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Model‐based meta‐analysis allows integration of aggregated‐level data (AD) from different clinical trials in one model to assess population efficacy/safety. However, AD is limited in individual‐level information, while individual‐patient‐level data (IPD) are hard to obtain. Combined modeling may take advantage of both sources.

Emphysema predicts hospitalisation and incident airflow obstruction among older smokers: a prospective cohort study.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundEmphysema on CT is common in older smokers. We hypothesised that emphysema on CT predicts acute episodes of care for chronic lower respiratory disease among older smokers.Materials and methodsParticipants in a lung cancer screening study age ...

Sirt1 expression is associated with CD31 expression in blood cells from patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Cigarette smoke induced oxidative stress has been shown to reduce silent information regulator 1 (Sirt1) levels in lung tissue from smokers and patients with COPD patients.

Stabilized Extracellular Vesicle Formulations for Inhalable Dry Powder Development

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) hold promise for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) treatment but face challenges with storage and delivery. This study demonstrates the stabilization of lung fibroblast‐derived EVs using inulin, enabling freeze‐drying and spray‐drying.
