Caveolin-1 scaffolding domain peptide abrogates autophagy dysregulation in pulmonary fibrosis
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is the most common and fatal form of interstitial lung disease. IPF is characterized by irreversible scarring of the lungs leading to lung function decline. Although the etiology remains poorly understood, dysregulated

Caveolin-1 peptide regulates p53-microRNA-34a feedback in fibrotic lung fibroblasts
Summary: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a life-threatening disease resulting from dysregulated repair responses to lung injury. Excessive extracellular matrix deposition by expanding myofibroblasts and fibrotic lung fibroblasts (fLfs) has been ...

PAI-1 regulates AT2-mediated re-alveolarization and ion permeability
Background Acute lung injury is characterized by overwhelmingly elevated PAI-1 in both lung edema fluid and the circulating system. The role of increased PAI-1, encoded by Serpine1 gene, in the regeneration of injured lung epithelium has not been ...

FBXO17 promotes cell proliferation through activation of Akt in lung adenocarcinoma cells
Background The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, mediated in part, by ubiquitin E3 ligases, is critical in regulating cellular processes such as cell proliferation, apoptosis, and migration.

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

Factor H preserves alternative complement function during ARDS, linked to improved survival
Background Effective regulation of complement activation may be crucial to preserving complement function during acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Factor H is the primary negative regulator of the alternative pathway of complement.

Sustained inflation at birth did not alter lung injury from mechanical ventilation in surfactant-treated fetal lambs. [PDF]
BackgroundSustained inflations (SI) are used with the initiation of ventilation at birth to rapidly recruit functional residual capacity and may decrease lung injury and the need for mechanical ventilation in preterm infants.
