Systematic Analysis of Composition, Interfacial Performance and Effects of Pulmonary Surfactant Preparations on Cellular Uptake and Cytotoxicity of Aerosolized Nanomaterials

open access: yesSmall Science, 2021
The interplay of particles with pulmonary surfactant, a lipid‐protein material pivotal for lung function, is hypothesized as a key factor that has not been routinely considered in the current in vitro models when determining the fate of inhaled ...

Surfactant Treatment Shows Higher Correlation Between Ventilator and EIT Tidal Volumes in an RDS Animal Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is a condition of pulmonary surfactant insufficiency in the premature newborn. As such, artificial pulmonary surfactant administration is a key treatment. Despite continued improvement in the clinical outcomes

Recent Advances in Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Based Gas Sensors: From Sensing Mechanisms to Biomedical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Laser‐induced graphene (LIG) provides a scalable, laser‐direct‐written route to porous graphene architecture with tunable chemistry and defect density. Through heterojunction engineering, catalytic functionalization, and intrinsic self‐heating, LIG achieves highly sensitive and selective detection of NOX, NH3, H2, and humidity, supporting next ...

Functional Disorder at the Neural Interface: How Disordered Nanostructures Promote Proper Growth and Differentiation in In Vitro Neural Cultures

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work provides a practical guide for neuroengineers to design advanced neural interfaces, embracing and tailoring the concept of functional disorder. By bridging 2D and 3D in vitro models, this work highlights how non‐periodic, spatially heterogeneous, multiscale nanotopography can enable more physiologically relevant platforms for studying neural ...

Nanometer Layer Coating to Lactose Particles for Optimization of Dexamethasone Pulmonary Delivery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Nanometer layer coating (NLC) was investigated and its mechanism illustrated by advanced characterization techniques. The effects and application for the inhalation of dexamethasone (DEX) were demonstrated through in vitro and in vivo evaluation. This approach increased DEX bioavailability and enabled the dose to be reduced to 1/30 of the intravenous ...

A case of uncomplicated pulmonary alveolar proteinosis evolving to pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesMonaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2016
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare syndrome characterised by intra-alveolar accumulation of surfactant components and cellular debris, with minimal interstitial inflammation or fibrosis.

AARS1‐Mediated RUNX3 K193 Lactylation Enhances the Activation and Cytotoxicity of CD8+T Cells in Smoking‐Related Emphysema

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Exposure to CS causes an elevation of AARS1 levels, which increases the levels of RUNX3 lactylation at the K193 site and increases protein levels of RUNX3 through inhibition of autolysosomal degradation. Elevated RUNX3 levels promote CD8+T cell activation and augment their cytotoxicity, which induces alveolar epithelial cell death and facilitates the ...

The effect of serum, glucocorticoids, gender and gestational age on the inactivation, synthesis and secretion of surfactant phospholipids by cultured foetal rat type II pneumocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Type II pneumocytes are responsible for the synthesis and secretion of pulmonary surfactant, which lines the alveoli of the lungs. Its presence as a monolayer at the airliquid interface in the alveoli diminishes surface tension, thus reducing the ...
