Carnosine (β-alanyl-L-histidine) is a small dipeptide with numerous activities, including antioxidant effects, metal ion chelation, proton buffering capacity, and inhibitory effects on protein carbonylation and glycation. Carnosine has been mostly studied in organs where it is abundant, including skeletal muscle, cerebral cortex, kidney, spleen, and ...

Inflammasomes are large innate cytoplasmic complexes that play a major role in promoting inflammation in the lung in response to a range of environmental and infectious stimuli. Inflammasomes are critical for driving acute innate immune responses that resolve infection and maintain tissue homeostasis.

Bagasse is the product remaining after extraction of sugar from sugar cane. This material is commonly baled and if not used immediately may remain exposed in the field for some months before being converted, by processing, into insulating and acoustic board. Workers employed in the breaking of these bales sometimes acquire a respiratory illness.

Lung Transplantation for Interstitial Lung Disease
Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2012For selected parenchymal lung disease patients who fail to respond to medical therapy and demonstrate declines in function that place them at increased risk for mortality, lung transplantation should be considered. Lung transplantation remains a complex medical intervention that requires a dedicated recipient and medical team.

Lung transplantation for interstitial lung diseases
Current Opinion in Pulmonary Medicine, 2014An overview over the role of lung transplantation in interstitial lung diseases will be given.Lung transplantation is an established therapy option for patients with various end-stage lung diseases. Currently, the worldwide procedural frequency is about 3600 per year.

Experimental studies and few human reports demonstrate that hyperoxia increases the level of reactive oxygen-derived free radicals and that these substances can produce oxidative cellular injury. However, available data suggest that the human lung is more resistant to hyperoxic oxidative damage than previously expected and demonstrate that absorption ...

Interstitial Lung Disease and Lung Transplantation
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2010Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common of the idiopathic interstitial pneumonias and carries the worst prognosis. Currently the best treatment option is lung transplantation. Historically patients with IPF had poor outcomes following referral for lung transplant due to high waiting-list mortality. The introduction of the lung allocation

Summary 1. The X-ray appearances of the pulmonary vessels in health, and the changes produced when the pulmonary blood flow is greatly increased (pulmonary plethora), or greatly reduced (pulmonary olig˦mia), are briefly described. 2. The chief nutrient vessels to the lungs are the bronchial arteries. Because of this pulmonary embolism is much
