Alveolar cells under mechanical stressed niche: critical contributors to pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesMolecular Medicine, 2020
Pulmonary fibrosis arises from the repeated epithelial mild injuries and insufficient repair lead to over activation of fibroblasts and excessive deposition of extracellular matrix, which result in a mechanical stretched niche.

Lung Cancer in Pulmonary Fibrosis: Tales of Epithelial Cell Plasticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Lung epithelial cells exhibit a high degree of plasticity. Alterations to lung epithelial cell function are critically involved in several chronic lung diseases such as pulmonary fibrosis.

Coagulation and anticoagulation in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an incurable, progressive interstitial lung disease with a prognosis that is worse than that of many cancers. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated a link between IPF and thrombotic vascular events.

Comorbid Conditions in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: Recognition and Management. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a fibrosing interstitial pneumonia of unknown etiology, primarily affects older adults and leads to a progressive decline in lung function and quality of life.

Early life growth patterns persist for 12 years and impact pulmonary outcomes in cystic fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: In children with cystic fibrosis (CF), recovery from growth faltering within 2 years of diagnosis (Responders) is associated with better growth and less lung disease at age 6 years.

Informal caregivers experience of supplemental oxygen in pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesHealth and Quality of Life Outcomes, 2017
Background Patients prescribed supplemental oxygen (O2) therapy face challenges as they adjust to being constantly “tethered” to an oxygen delivery device.

Increased expression of 5-hydroxytryptamine(2A/B) receptors in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: a rationale for therapeutic intervention [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) has a poor prognosis and limited responsiveness to available treatments. It is characterised by epithelial cell injury, fibroblast activation and proliferation and extracellular matrix deposition ...

MRI of the lung (3/3)-current applications and future perspectives [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
BACKGROUND: MRI of the lung is recommended in a number of clinical indications. Having a non-radiation alternative is particularly attractive in children and young subjects, or pregnant women.
