Protective effects of neutrophil serine protease inhibition against ischemia–reperfusion injury in lung or heart transplantation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
A major complication of organ transplantation is primary graft dysfunction, which represents the leading cause of early post‐transplantation morbidity and mortality. Pre‐operative depletion of neutrophil serine proteases in circulating neutrophils by pretreatment with a cathepsin C inhibitor in recipients could prevent early post‐operative ...

The impact of emphysema in pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Review, 2013
Several groups have described a syndrome in which idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) coexists with pulmonary emphysema. This comes as no surprise since both diseases are associated with a history of exposure to cigarette smoke. The syndrome of combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) is characterised by upper lobe emphysema and lower lobe ...

Impact of N‐linked glycans on the dual short fibulin/LTBP‐4 axes regulating elastogenesis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Elastic fiber assembly is orchestrated by multiple glycoproteins. We delineate the molecular basis of two key axes involved in elastic fiber formation—LTBP‐4L/fibulin‐4 and LTBP‐4S/fibulin‐5. We show that N‐linked glycans on these glycoproteins regulate their interactions and conformations, both of which are critical aspects in elastic fiber formation.

Turning the tide on bronchiectasis in adult Aboriginal Australians: from neglect to action

open access: yesInternal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic respiratory disorders are highly prevalent among adult Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, with emerging evidence suggesting that there is a significant burden of bronchiectasis contributing to overall higher morbidity and mortality.

Predicting clinical outcome with phenotypic clusters using quantitative CT fibrosis and emphysema features in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundThe clinical course of IPF varies. This study sought to identify phenotyping with quantitative computed tomography (CT) fibrosis and emphysema features using a cluster analysis and to assess prognostic impact among identified clusters in ...

Predifferentiated amniotic fluid mesenchymal stem cells enhance lung alveolar epithelium regeneration and reverse elastase-induced pulmonary emphysema

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy, 2019
Introduction Pulmonary emphysema is a major component of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Emphysema progression attributed not only to alveolar structure loss and pulmonary regeneration impairment, but also to excessive inflammatory response,

Effect of SGLT‐2 inhibitors on COPD exacerbations in individuals with type 2 diabetes: A meta‐analysis and Bayesian sensitivity analysis

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
This systematic review and meta‐analysis evaluates the impact of SGLT‐2 inhibitors on COPD exacerbations in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Our findings demonstrate that SGLT‐2 inhibitors significantly reduce the frequency of COPD exacerbations by 35% compared to other antidiabetic agents, offering dual benefits in glycemic control and ...

Infection risk in atopic dermatitis patients treated with biologics and JAK inhibitors: BioDay results

open access: yesJournal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, EarlyView.
This cohort study of 1793 atopic dermatitis patients (aged ≥ 12) found higher infection rates with Janus kinase inhibitor treatment compared to biologic treatment, particularly for herpes infections, with a history of viral or fungal skin infection as a risk factor associated with infection.
