Adaptive Immunity in Pulmonary Sarcoidosis and Chronic Beryllium Disease

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
Pulmonary sarcoidosis and chronic beryllium disease (CBD) are inflammatory granulomatous lung diseases defined by the presence of non-caseating granulomas in the lung.

Establishment and Maintenance of Conventional and Circulation-Driven Lung-Resident Memory CD8+ T Cells Following Respiratory Virus Infections

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Antigen-specific CD8+ tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM cells) persist in the lung following resolution of a respiratory virus infection and provide first-line defense against reinfection. In contrast to other memory T cell populations, such as central

Umbilical Cord Blood Cells Do Not Reduce Ventilation-Induced Lung Injury in Preterm Lambs

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
BackgroundPreterm infants often have immature lungs and, consequently, many require respiratory support at birth. However, respiratory support causes lung inflammation and injury, termed ventilation-induced lung injury (VILI).

Guanylyl cyclase activation reverses resistive breathing–induced lung injury and inflammation [PDF]

, 2015
Inspiratory resistive breathing (RB), encountered in obstructive lung diseases, induces lung injury. The soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)/cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway is down-regulated in chronic and acute animal models of RB, such as ...

The lung in amyloidosis [PDF]

European Respiratory Review, 2017
Amyloidosis is a disorder caused by misfolding of autologous protein and its extracellular deposition as fibrils, resulting in vital organ dysfunction and eventually death. Pulmonary amyloidosis may be localised or part of systemic amyloidosis.Pulmonary interstitial amyloidosis is symptomatic only if the amyloid deposits severely affect gas exchange ...

Gene Therapy for Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease: Overcoming the Barriers to Translation to the Clinic

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2018
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a progressive, chronic and debilitating genetic disease caused by mutations in the CF Transmembrane-Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene.

Effects of Human Umbilical Cord-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells on the Acute Cigarette Smoke-Induced Pulmonary Inflammation Model

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Cigarette smoke (CS) has been reported to induce oxidative stress and inflammatory process in the lungs. However, the role of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) in the regulation of pulmonary inflammation remains unclear.

Perivascular epithelioid cell tumor of the lung: A case report and literature review

Thoracic Cancer, 2022
The perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) is a rare tumor of interstitial origin characterized by several immunological and muscle cell markers. The clear cell sugar tumor (CCST) of the lung is a type of PEComa defined by thin cell walls and high ...

The future of ischemic stroke: flow from prehospital neuroprotection to definitive reperfusion. [PDF]

, 2014
Recent advances in ischemic stroke enable a seamless transition of the patient flow from the prehospital setting to definitive reperfusion, without the arbitrary separation of therapeutic phases of ischemia based on time alone.
