Serial bronchoscopic lung lavage in pulmonary alveolar proteinosis under local anesthesia
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disease, characterized by alveolar accumulation of surfactant composed of proteins and lipids due to defective surfactant clearance by alveolar macrophages.

Responsive liquid metal materials towards unstructured environment
Room‐temperature liquid metals integrate conductivity, deformability, and interfacial dynamics, enabling robust performance in unstructured environments. This review highlights key properties, requirements, and applications across in vivo, underwater, natural, space, and radiation settings, with advances in sensing, actuation, thermal regulation, and ...

Alveolar macrophages in pulmonary alveolar proteinosis: origin, function, and therapeutic strategies
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare pulmonary disorder that is characterized by the abnormal accumulation of surfactant within the alveoli. Alveolar macrophages (AMs) have been identified as playing a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of PAP ...

From the definition of Silicosis at the 1930 Johannesburg conference to the blurred boundaries between pneumoconioses, sarcoidosis and pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) [PDF]
The 1930 International Labour Office Conference on silicosis in Johannesburg identified silicosis by setting a medicolegal framework to its nosology: as with other occupational illnesses, its medical content was fixed under economic pressure.

Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis after lung transplantation
We report the case of a 69‐year‐old man five‐month post double lung transplant for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who presented with progressive breathlessness, loss of lung function, and diffuse ground glass shadowing on the chest computed ...

In this study, we analysed the immune responses of blood‐derived monocyte macrophages and iPSC‐derived macrophages following BCG/HKMT infection. We found that iPSC‐derived macrophages displayed a markedly stronger activation profile, including faster migration, increased reactive oxygen species production, elevated apoptosis marker expression and ...
