Human and bovine respiratory syncytial virus vaccine research and development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Human (HRSV) and bovine (BRSV) respiratory syncytial viruses (RSV) are two closely related viruses, which are the most important causative agents of respiratory tract infections of young children and calves, respectively.

Chronic, Environmentally Relevant PM2.5 Exposure Exacerbates Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Early‐Stage Renal Dysfunction in a Rodent Model

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While epidemiological studies link fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and renal dysfunction, a translational gap exists, as most animal models utilize acute, high‐dose exposures that poorly reflect chronic, moderate‐level human scenarios.

Toxicity of lunar dust

open access: yes, 2012
The formation, composition and physical properties of lunar dust are incompletely characterised with regard to human health. While the physical and chemical determinants of dust toxicity for materials such as asbestos, quartz, volcanic ashes and urban ...

Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid Cells‐2 Regulates Innate Lymphoid Cell Levels in Bleomycin‐Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, a pathological change causing poor outcomes, is not reversible despite current antifibrotic therapy. Emerging evidence suggests that innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) mediate lung inflammation and fibrosis after stimulation by endogenous factors.

Ninjurin 1 contributes to TLR-induced inflammation in endothelial cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Nerve injury induced protein 1 (Ninjurin 1 (Ninj1)) was first identified in Schwann cells and neurons contributing to cell adhesion and nerve regeneration.

Effects of Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Derived Exosomes on Lung Inflammation in a Murine Aspiration Model

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
This study assessed the effect of intravenous MSC‐derived exosomes on inflammatory lung injury in a rat model of LPS aspiration. Compared with LPS alone, MSC exosome treatment reduced histologic lung injury overall (significant group effect p = 0.02; linear trend p = 0.006) and significantly lowered Tnf gene expression on qRT‐PCR (p < 0.05).

Acute intratracheal Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in cystic fibrosis mice is age-independent

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2011
Background Since the discovery of the human CFTR gene in 1989 various mouse models for cystic fibrosis (CF) have been generated and used as a very suitable and popular tool to approach research on this life-threatening disease.

IKKα inactivation promotes Kras-initiated lung adenocarcinoma development through disrupting major redox regulatory pathways. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Lung adenocarcinoma (ADC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) are two distinct and predominant types of human lung cancer. IκB kinase α (IKKα) has been shown to suppress lung SCC development, but its role in ADC is unknown.

Acute inflammatory response to contrast agent aspiration and its mechanisms in the rat lung. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Objectives/hypothesisContrast agent (CA) aspiration is an established complication of upper gastrointestinal and videofluoroscopic swallow studies. The underlying molecular biological mechanisms of acute response to CA aspiration in the respiratory ...

Migrasomes, Matrix‐Bound Nanovesicles, and More: Messengers in the Matrix

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) and particles (EPs) are diverse micro‐ and nanoparticles that circulate in bodily fluids and can attach to, or be deposited onto, the extracellular matrix (ECM) and other surfaces. To date, the nomenclature and classification of matrix‐bound or matrix‐associated EVs and EPs (MEVPs) have been unclear, largely due to
