Ciliary Ultrastructure Assessed by Transmission Electron Microscopy in Adults with Bronchiectasis and Suspected Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia but Inconclusive Genotype

Cells, 2023
Whole-exome sequencing has expedited the diagnostic work-up of primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), when used in addition to clinical phenotype and nasal nitric oxide. However, it reveals variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in established PCD genes or (

Interleukin‐17A and interleukin‐22 production by conventional and non‐conventional lymphocytes in three different end‐stage lung diseases

Clinical & Translational Immunology, 2022
Objectives The contribution of adaptive vs. innate lymphocytes to IL‐17A and IL‐22 secretion at the end stage of chronic lung diseases remains largely unexplored. In order to uncover tissue‐ and disease‐specific secretion patterns, we compared production

The Relationship between Plasma Alpha-1-Antitrypsin Polymers and Lung or Liver Function in ZZ Alpha-1-Antitrypsin-Deficient Patients

Biomolecules, 2022
Alpha-1-Antitrypsin (AAT) is a protein of the SERPINA1 gene. A single amino acid mutation (Lys342Glu) results in an expression of misfolded Z-AAT protein, which has a high propensity to intra- and extra-cellular polymerization.

The Coexistence of asthma and Chronic Ostructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): prevalence and risk factors in young, middle-aged and elderly people from the general population [PDF]

, 2013
Background: The joint distribution of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has not been well described. This study aims at determining the prevalence of self-reported physician diagnoses of asthma, COPD and of the asthma-COPD overlap ...

Spirometric and anthropometric improvements in response to elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor depending on age and lung disease severity

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2023
Introduction: Triple-combination cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulator therapy with elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI) was introduced in August 2020 in Germany for people with CF (pwCF) ≥12 years (yrs.) of age and in ...

The Role of Macrophages in the Development of Acute and Chronic Inflammatory Lung Diseases

Cells, 2021
Macrophages play an important role in the innate and adaptive immune responses of organ systems, including the lungs, to particles and pathogens. Cumulative results show that macrophages contribute to the development and progression of acute or chronic ...

Recent Progress of Ferroptosis in Lung Diseases

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Ferroptosis is a new form of programmed cell death due to iron-dependent excess accumulation of lipid peroxides and differs from other programmed cell deaths in morphological and biochemical characteristics.
