The negative cofactor 2 complex is a key regulator of drug resistance in Aspergillus fumigatus

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Resistance to primary treatments of invasive aspergillosis is growing. Here, the authors generate a knockout library for 484 transcription factors in Aspergillus fumigatus, and show that loss of the NCT complex leads to cross-resistance to all primary ...

Lung colonization by Aspergillus fumigatus is controlled by ZNF77

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Aspergillus fumigatus regularly colonises the lungs but in the context of respiratory disease can be associated with increased pathology. Here the authors show mutations in ZNF77 result in altered bronchial epithelial characteristics and enhanced fungal ...

A model of human lung fibrogenesis for the assessment of anti-fibrotic strategies in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive interstitial lung disease with limited therapeutic options. KCa3.1 ion channels play a critical role in TGFβ1-dependent pro-fibrotic responses in human lung myofibroblasts.

Vagal-α7nAChR signaling promotes lung stem cells regeneration via fibroblast growth factor 10 during lung injury repair

open access: yesStem Cell Research & Therapy, 2020
Background Proliferation and transdifferentiation of lung stem cells (LSCs) could promote lung injury repair. The distal airways of the lung are innervated by the vagus nerve.

Respiratory Infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The respiratory tract is a common site of infection in cancer patients and is associated with substantial moribidity and mortality in this population. Cancer, chemotherapy, and radiation can all cause noninfectious pulmonary infiltrates and respiratory symptoms that can masquerade as a respiratory tract infection.

Plasmodium infection inhibits tumor angiogenesis through effects on tumor-associated macrophages in a murine implanted hepatoma model

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2020
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death in China. The lack of an effective treatment for this disease results in a high recurrence rate in patients who undergo radical tumor resection, and the 5-year
