Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

Seminars in Roentgenology, 2019
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), also referred to as extrinsic allergic alveolitis, is characterized by non‐immunoglobulin E mediated inflammation of the parenchyma, alveoli, and terminal airways of the lung initiated by inhaled antigens in a susceptible host. Etiologic agents of HP are either organic high-molecular-weight compounds (e.g., bacteria,

Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 1997
There are 30 or more groups of hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP), such as farmer's lung, bird fancier's disease, humidifier lung, air-conditioner disease, and summer-type HP. Regardless of the causative agent or its environmental setting, the pathogenesis and clinical manifestations of the groups are similar.

Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

Southern Medical Journal, 1975
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis, a disease caused by repetitive inhalation of nonviable organic dust, is increasingly recognized as a cause of acute and chronic lung disease in both children and adults. Twenty-one of 32 children and adults who went on a hay ride in Arkansas developed this disease. These cases are reported.

Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2012
Clinical manifestations of hypersensitivity pneumonitis may closely mimic other interstitial lung diseases, and the disease onset is usually insidious. High-resolution computed tomography and bronchoalveolar lavage are the sensitive and characteristic diagnostic tests for hypersensitivity pneumonitis.

Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 1983
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis represents a disease spectrum and not a single pulmonary disorder. Both acute and chronic forms of disease occur and presumably reflect different yet interrelated immune mechanisms of pathogenesis. The diagnosis of hypersensitivity pneumonitis, although often straightforward, may depend on the use of immunologic and ...

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis

Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 1973
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis is a syndrome caused by sensitization to any of a wide variety of environmental antigens and results in a pulmonary immunologic inflammatory process. The clinical syndrome occurs in a temporal relationship to exposure to the offending agent with resultant systemic or respiratory symptoms with defined chest radiographic and ...

Hypersensitivity pneumonitis

Current Opinion in Allergy & Clinical Immunology, 2010
To bring readers up to date on recent reports, both clinical and basic understanding, on hypersensitivity pneumonitis.Although many antigens and environmental settings have already been described as sources of this hyperimmune pulmonary disease, the literature continues to bring forth other conditions that can cause hypersensitivity pneumonitis.

HYPERSENSITIVITY PNEUMONITIS

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1992
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis is an immunologic mediated response in the lung to inhaled organic antigen. Farmer's lung and pigeon breeder's lung are the two most widely know disorders. The chest radiograph usually is normal in hypersensitivity pneumonitis. When abnormal, the distribution of disease favors the lung bases with acute disease and the upper

Angiogenesis in Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

Archives of Physiology and Biochemistry, 2003
Angiogenesis is an essential process required for growth and tissue repair after injury, but it may also contribute to the pathology of a number of human disorders including neoplasias, atherosclerosis and inflammatory diseases. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent angiogenic peptide upregulated by many cytokines and endothelium shear ...

Immunology of Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

CRC Critical Reviews in Toxicology, 1982
Hypersensitivity pneumonitis (extrinsic allergic alveolitis) represents a spectrum of granulomatous, interstitial, and alveolar-filling lung disorders of which farmer's lung is a classic example. A major source of offending antigens in these diseases are thermophilic actinomycetes growing in moldy vegetable matter especially Micropolyspora faeni, and ...
