Enhancing pulmonary drug dispersion using lipid surfactants in a murine model [PDF]
Cystic fibrosis is a life-shortening genetic disease that affects the respiratory, digestive and reproductive systems. Though it manifests a variety of symptoms, it is most notably characterized by chronic pulmonary infections that ultimately lead to ...

Synthetic Pulmonary Surfactant Preparations: New developments and future trends
Pulmonary surfactant is a lipid-protein complex that coats the interior of the alveoli and enables the lungs to function properly. Upon its synthesis, lung surfactant adsorbs at the interface between the air and the hypophase, a capillary aqueous layer ...

Abstract Background Fibrillins provide a scaffold for elastic fiber formation, which enables lung recoil and aortic compliance. Abnormal fibrillin microfibrils, as in Marfan syndrome, lead to enlarged alveoli, vascular stiffening, and aneurysms. Our earlier studies suggested that fibrillin function depends on O‐glucosylation of its epidermal growth ...

Biomarkers of lung congestion and injury in acute heart failure
Abstract Acute heart failure (AHF) classification and management are primarily based on lung congestion and/or hypoperfusion. The quantification of the vascular and tissue lung damage is not standard practice though biomarkers of lung injury may play a relevant role in this context.

Crunches were produced from formulations of almond nuts and tiger nuts (AN–TN) for the plausible management of commodity disease of obese condition. The produced AN–TN crunches showed high consumers acceptability, phenolic, and amylopectin contents. In addition, formulated percentages of AN–TN crunches when fed to high‐fat diet (HFD) fed rats led to ...

Plasmid‐like DNA sequences frequently found in bovine milk and serum have been proposed as infectious agents promoting indirect carcinogenesis. This multi‐omics study detected immune cells positive for these bovine meat and milk factors (BMMFs) in patients with lung cancer, with BMMF expression inversely correlated with smoking intensity.
