Light scattering by pulmonary alveoli and airway surface liquid using a concentric sphere model [PDF]
We employ a concentric sphere Mie scattering model to describe light scattering by pulmonary alveoli and airway surface liquid (ASL). Using this layered sphere model, we compare alveolar scattering at different points along the respiratory cycle and ...

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.

Gaseous Diffusion from Alveoli to Pulmonary Vessels of Considerable Size [PDF]
Thirty patients have been presented in whom the appearance of inhaled hydrogen gas at an electrode in the wedge position of a pulmonary artery was seen to occur within two seconds. In 13 of these patients the appearance of hydrogen occurred with equal or nearly equal rapidity in a pulmonary artery at least 3 mm in diameter.

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.

High-speed three-dimensional imaging of the pulmonary alveoli [PDF]
Investigating the structure and function of pulmonary alveoli in vivo is crucial for understanding the normal and diseased lung. In particular, understanding the three-dimensional geometry and relationship of the terminal alveoli to their neighboring alveoli, alveolar ducts and acini during respiration would be a major advance.

P-selectin/ICAM-1 double mutant mice: Acute emigration of neutrophils into the peritoneum is completely absent but is normal into pulmonary alveoli [PDF]
Neutrophil emigration during an inflammatory response is mediated through interactions between adhesion molecules on endothelial cells and neutrophils. P-Selectin mediates rolling or slowing of neutrophils, while intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1)

Effects of E-Cigarette Vapor Smoke on Pulmonary Alveoli in Rattus norvegicus Lungs
Introduction: Vapor is considered a safer alternative to tobacco cigarettes because the high nicotine content is less. However, vapor still contains substances that are classified as toxic to humans.

Effect of scoliosis on growth of alveoli and pulmonary arteries and on right ventricle [PDF]
During childhood the lung not only grows in size but alveoli and arteries multiply and the pattern of muscularity of the arteries changes. A quantitative study is here reported on 4 cases of scoliosis. The limitation and distortion of space available affect lung growth.
