Enhancing pulmonary drug dispersion using lipid surfactants in a murine model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
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

open access: yes, 2008
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 ...

Loss of POGLUT2/3‐mediated O‐glucosylation produces lung and aortic phenotypes reminiscent of fibrillin1 mutants

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 781-789, April 2025.
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.

Effect of particle emissions from biofuel combustion on surface activity of model and therapeutic pulmonary surfactants

open access: yes, 2006
This study was designed to determine the effects of particle emissions from biofuel combustion in household cooking devices, commonly used in rural India, on surface activity of model lung surfactants using Langmuir monolayers.

Infused Tiger Nut and Almond Nut Crunchy Snacks Enhanced the Nutritional Value and Antioxidant Activity in High‐Fat Diet Fed Rat

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
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 ...

Safety Profile of Sclerosing Agents in the Management of Low‐Flow Vascular Malformations of the Head and Neck—A Systematic Review

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Low‐flow vascular malformations (LFVMs) of the head and neck, including venous and lymphatic malformations, represent a heterogeneous group of congenital anomalies frequently requiring intervention due to functional and esthetic impairment.

Lung Cancer Patients Display Increased Expression of Bovine Meat and Milk Factor (BMMF) Proteins in Peritumor Alveolar Macrophages

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
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.
