Lung transplantation for interstitial lung disease

Breathe
Interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) are now the most common indication for lung transplant internationally. Given that many lung transplant candidates with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis are older, referral to a pulmonary rehabilitation programme is important to help mitigate the adverse outcomes associated with frailty.

Harnessing Advances in Bone Tissue Engineering for Design of Bone‐on‐Chip Systems

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bone‐on‐chip (BoC) systems demonstrate significant potential as next‐generation models to study human (patho)physiology and evaluate new therapies. However, progress toward functional, human‐like BoCs has been hindered by the structural and functional complexity of bone. This perspective discusses how insights from bone tissue engineering can guide BoC

A persistent variant telomere sequence in a human pedigree

Nature Communications
The telomere sequence, TTAGGG, is conserved across all vertebrates and plays an essential role in suppressing the DNA damage response by binding a set of proteins termed shelterin. Changes in the telomere sequence impair shelterin binding, initiate a DNA
