HECTD1-mediated SFTPB overexpression in fibrotic lung induced by silica

Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports
Alveolar epithelial cells type 2 are lung progenitor and secretory cells capable of secreting four surfactant proteins, namely surfactant protein A (SFTPA), surfactant protein B (SFTPB), surfactant protein C (SFTPC), and surfactant protein D (SFTPD ...

In vivo clearance of surfactant lipids during acute pulmonary inflammation.

Respiratory Research, 2004
Background A decrease in pulmonary surfactant has been suggested to contribute to the lung dysfunction associated with pulmonary inflammation. A number of studies have implicated surfactant clearance as a possible mechanism for altered pool sizes.

Cascade‐Responsive MXene@Cu‐MOF Heterostructure Integrates Antioxidant Activity, Infection Control, and Vascularization for Tracheal Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A cascade‐responsive MXene@Cu‐MOF/GelMA hydrogel is engineered as a “skeleton–backpack” platform for extensive tracheal repair. The MXene framework scavenges postoperative ROS and converts NIR light into mild hyperthermia, while the Cu‐MOF component provides pH/NIR‐responsive Cu2+ dosing for infection control, angiogenesis, and chondrogenesis.

Hypobaric hypoxia-related impairment of pulmonary surfactant proteins A and D did not favour Pneumocystis carinii Frenkel 1999 growth in non-immunocompromised rats

Parasite, 2008
It has been suggested that patients with pulmonary surfactant impairment are more susceptible to Pneumocystis infection than healthy controls. Owing the fact that most patients with pulmonary surfactant impairment also suffer from hypoxia, we explored ...

Catechol Derivative‐Based Bioadhesives: Molecular Design for Precision Medical Adhesion

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study utilizes tree‐inspired side‐chain engineering to graft five catechol derivatives onto PVA, systematically revealing how side‐chain length and substituents regulate adhesion and cohesion properties. Among them, the PVA‐CA patch demonstrates superior tissue adhesion, biocompatibility, and promotes regeneration, establishing a programmable ...

Comparative evaluation of single‐artery cannulation with passive venous drainage versus traditional dual‐cannula ex vivo lung perfusion in a rat model

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study compared a simplified rat ex vivo lung perfusion model with single‐artery inflow and passive vein drainage to the traditional dual‐catheter closed‐loop system. Abstract Background Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) has emerged as a critical technique for lung preservation and evaluation prior to transplantation.

Biophysical properties of alveolar surfactant in drever dogs with hunting associated pulmonary edema

Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica
Background A syndrome of acute non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema associated with hunting is prevalent in the drever breed, but etiology of this syndrome is currently unknown. Alveolar surfactant has a critical role in preventing alveolar collapse and edema

Antibacterial Applications of Black and Violet Phosphorus‐Based Biomaterials

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Black and violet phosphorus‐based biomaterials exhibit broad‐spectrum antibacterial efficacy in various infections, including bone, skin, ocular, dental, lung, and sepsis cases. Their antibacterial mechanisms include physical disruption, light‐driven effects, targeted drug delivery, and enhanced composite strategies.
