Assessment of airway length of Korean adults and children for otolaryngology and ophthalmic surgery using a fiberoptic bronchoscope [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2010
BackgroundKnowledge regarding normal upper airway anatomy is essential for airway management and is required to prevent malpositioning of endotracheal tubes. We evaluated the length of the upper airway in Korean children and adults who had no abnormality

Endothelial‐Derived CCL7 Promotes Macrophage Polarization and Aggravates Septic Acute Lung Injury via CCR1‐Mediated STAT1 Succinylation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
During sepsis, pulmonary vascular endothelial cells secrete chemokine CCL7, which plays a pivotal role in facilitating the infiltration of C‐C motif chemokine receptor 1‐positive (CCR1+) macrophages into lung tissue. Activation of the CCL7–CCR1 axis enhances the succinylation of STAT1 mediated by KAT2A, thereby driving metabolic reprogramming and ...

Novel anti-tumour necrosis factor receptor-1 (TNFR1) domain antibody prevents pulmonary inflammation in experimental acute lung injury. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a pleiotropic cytokine with both injurious and protective functions, which are thought to diverge at the level of its two cell surface receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2.

Succinic Acid‐Induced Macrophage Endocytosis Promotes Extracellular Vesicle‐Based Integrin Beta1 Transfer Accelerating Fibroblast Activation and Sepsis‐Associated Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulates the production of succinic acid in lung tissue, which promotes macrophages endocytosis and the formation of multivesicular bodies (MVBs). These MVBs release profibrotic extracellular vesicles (EVs), facilitating the transfer of integrin beta1 (ITGβ1) transfer and subsequently activating fibroblasts, thereby ...

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.

Divergent Delivery and Expression Kinetics of Lipid and Polymeric Nanoparticles across mRNA Modalities

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Self‐amplifying (saRNA), linear (linRNA), and circular (circRNA) mRNAs are compared under standardized conditions using lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) and pABOL polymer. saRNA achieved superior expression, while linRNA and circRNA performance varied based on untranslated region elements and delivery method.

Impact of bed angle and height on intubation success during simulated endotracheal intubation in the ramped position

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Emergency Physicians Open, 2020
Objective The ramped position is often used during endotracheal intubation to improve oxygenation, improve laryngeal views, and reduce airway complications.

High levels of cyclic di-GMP in Klebsiella pneumoniae attenuate virulence in the lung [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The bacterial second messenger bis-(3′-5′)-cyclic dimeric GMP (c-di-GMP) has been shown to influence the expression of virulence factors in certain pathogenic bacteria, but little is known about its activity in the increasingly antibiotic-resistant ...
