Macrophage-epithelial interactions in pulmonary alveoli. [PDF]
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]
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 ...

Hydrodynamic Cleansing of Pulmonary Alveoli [PDF]
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

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

THE ABSORPTION OF PROTEIN SOLUTIONS FROM THE PULMONARY ALVEOLI [PDF]
Horse serum, crystallized hemoglobin, and crystallized egg albumin have been injected into the lung alveoli of dogs in which the entrances of the right lymphatics have been tied and the thoracic duct cannulated. Samples of blood and lymph have been taken following this injection.

Pulmonary Surfactant Function in Alveoli and Conducting Airways
Surface tension plays a very important role in aeration of the neonate's lungs. Pulmonary surfactant, which is inadequate in the premature infant, modifies surface tension during the act of breathing and is necessary for maintenance of alveolar stability. These facts led to the development of the concept that it might be possible to treat the premature

Increased pulmonary blood flow leads to alveolar dysplasia during the early postnatal developmental stage. [PDF]
Background Increased pulmonary blood flow (IncPBF), one of the most important features of many children with congenital heart diseases, is well-known as a prerequisite for the induction of pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Alveolar adenoma: A rare lung tumor [PDF]
Introduction Alveolar adenoma belongs to the group of benign epithelial tumors. Histogenesis of alveolar adenoma is a combination of proliferation of alveolar pneumocytes and fibrous tissue originating from septal mesenchyma.

Microparticle Transport and Sedimentation in a Rhythmically Expanding Alveolar Chip
Understanding the mechanism of particle transport and sedimentation in pulmonary alveolus is important for deciphering the causes of respiratory diseases and helping the development of drug delivery.
