Legionella pneumophila infection activates bystander cells differentially by bacterial and host cell vesicles

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Extracellular vesicles from eukaryotic cells and outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) released from gram-negative bacteria have been described as mediators of pathogen-host interaction and intercellular communication. Legionella pneumophila (L. pneumophila) is

3D Cell Culture Models Demonstrate a Role for FGF and WNT Signaling in Regulation of Lung Epithelial Cell Fate and Morphogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
FGF signaling plays an essential role in lung development, homeostasis, and regeneration. We employed mouse 3D cell culture models and imaging to study ex vivo the role of FGF ligands and the interplay of FGF signaling with epithelial growth factor (EGF)

Cigarette smoke-induced gasdermin D activation in bronchoalveolar macrophages and bronchial epithelial cells dependently on NLRP3

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Chronic pulmonary inflammation and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are major health issues largely due to air pollution and cigarette smoke (CS) exposure.

Non-linearity and Non-Gaussianity through Phase Information [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
In the standard picture of structure formation, initially random-phase fluctuations are amplified by non-linear gravitational instability to produce a final distribution of mass which is highly non-Gaussian and has highly coupled Fourier phases.

Understanding alveolarization to induce lung regeneration

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2018
Background Gas exchange represents the key physiological function of the lung, and is dependent upon proper formation of the delicate alveolar structure. Malformation or destruction of the alveolar gas-exchange regions are key histopathological hallmarks

Lung and heart-lung transplantation

open access: yesCardiology in the Young, 2009
I NCREASED UNDERSTANDING AND AWARENESS OF congenital cardiac disease has allowed early identification of these children. Advances in surgical techniques, anesthesia, and medical treatment have rendered the majority of forms of congenital cardiac defects treatable.

Parameter switching in a generalized Duffing system: Finding the stable attractors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper presents a simple periodic parameter-switching method which can find any stable limit cycle that can be numerically approximated in a generalized Duffing system. In this method, the initial value problem of the system is numerically integrated

Lung transplantation for interstitial lung disease [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2021
Lung transplantation (LTx) can be a life-extending treatment option for patients with advanced and/or progressive fibrotic interstitial lung disease (ILD), especially idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), fibrotic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, sarcoidosis and connective tissue disease-associated ILD.

Lung [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Transplantation, 2016
Lungs are allocated to adult and adolescent transplant candidates (aged ≥ 12 years) on the basis of age, geography, blood type compatibility, and the lung allocation score (LAS), which reflects risk of waitlist mortality and probability of posttransplant survival.
