Hydrodynamic Cleansing of Pulmonary Alveoli [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2002
The inside wall of the pulmonary alveolus is lined with a thin viscous fluid layer and a monolayer of surfactants. Inhaled foreign particles that reach the lung alveoli are normally neutralized by macrophages and remain inside the lung. Based on the suggestion that a hydrodynamic cleansing mechanism may exist in which particles are swept out by the net

Synchrotron x-ray imaging of pulmonary alveoli in respiration in live intact mice [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2015
Despite nearly a half century of studies, it has not been fully understood how pulmonary alveoli, the elementary gas exchange units in mammalian lungs, inflate and deflate during respiration.

Macrophage-epithelial interactions in pulmonary alveoli. [PDF]

open access: yesSemin Immunopathol, 2016
Alveolar macrophages have been investigated for years by approaches involving macrophage extraction from the lung by bronchoalveolar lavage, or by cell removal from lung tissue. Since extracted macrophages are studied outside their natural milieu, there is little understanding of the extent to which alveolar macrophages interact with the epithelium, or

ABSORPTION FROM THE PULMONARY ALVEOLI [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 1947
Experiments upon dogs anesthetized with nembutal and lasting 4 hours, in which the right lymphatic duct and thoracic duct have been cannulated and collection of lung lymph and blood specimens was accomplished after intratracheal instillation of dog plasma, purified bovine serum albumin, crystallized egg albumin, and hemoglobin, have shown that the ...

Histomorphology of the Pulmonary Alveoli of Goat (Capra hircus) [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary World, 2008
Histomorphological studies were conducted on the pulmonary alveoli of ten adult healthy goats of either sex. The alveoli were roughly spherical structures which opened into the alveolar ducts and alveolar sacs or respiratory bronchioles.

Tuberculosis: oral alveolus and pulmonary alveoli coexisting. [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Rep, 2014
Tuberculosis of the oral cavity is uncommon in this antibiotic era. We report a case of a long standing non-healing ulcer of the right upper maxillogingival sulcus, found to be tuberculosis of a rather unusual site in the oral cavity, the alveolus.

Leukocyte trafficking in alveoli and airway passages

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2000
Many pulmonary diseases preferentially affect the large airways or the alveoli. Although the mechanisms are often particular to each disease process, site-specific differences in leukocyte trafficking and the regulation of inflammation also occur ...

Localized Pulmonary Interstitial Emphysema Which Occurred After Non-invasive Mechanical Ventilatory Support

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Emergency and Intensive Care Medicine, 2020
Pulmonary interstitial emphysema is a rare condition characterized by collection of air in the pulmonary interstitial tissue outside normal air passages as a result of injury to the alveoli and small airways, and accumulation of air within the ...
