A circadian based inflammatory response – implications for respiratory disease and treatment

open access: yesSleep Science and Practice, 2017
Circadian clocks regulate the daily timing of many of our physiological, metabolic and biochemical functions. The immune system also displays circadian oscillations in immune cell count, synthesis and cytokine release, clock gene expression in cells and ...

Pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The current paradigm for the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is that chronic airflow limitation results from an abnormal inflammatory response to inhaled particles and gases in the lung. Airspace inflammation appears to be different

Pulmonary Emphysema: Visual Interpretation and Quantitative Analysis

open access: yes대한영상의학회지, 2021
Pulmonary emphysema is a cause of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Emphysema can be accurately diagnosed via CT. The severity of emphysema can be assessed using visual interpretation or quantitative analysis.

Quercetin prevents progression of disease in elastase/LPS-exposed mice by negatively regulating MMP expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by chronic bronchitis, emphysema and irreversible airflow limitation. These changes are thought to be due to oxidative stress and an imbalance of proteases and antiproteases ...

Development of a 4-aminopyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-based dual IGF1R/Src inhibitor as a novel anticancer agent with minimal toxicity

open access: yesMolecular Cancer, 2018
Background Both the type I insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF1R) and Src pathways are associated with the development and progression of numerous types of human cancer, and Src activation confers resistance to anti-IGF1R therapies. Hence, targeting

Association between plasma sRAGE and emphysema according to the genotypes of AGER gene

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2022
Background Higher soluble receptor for advanced glycation end product (sRAGE) levels are considered to be associated with severe emphysema. However, the relationship remains uncertain when the advanced glycation end-product specific receptor (AGER) gene ...
