Surfactant function in neonates with respiratory distress syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The function of pulmonary surfactant of a group of 14 preterm neonates (birth weight 907 +/- 60 g) who suffered from severe respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) and who had received exogenous bovine lipid extracted surfactant on the first day of life was ...

Glucocorticoid‐Induced TNFR‐Related Ligand as a Biomarker for Diagnosis and Severity of Asthma in Children

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
Our study demonstrates elevated GITRL expression in HDM‐exposed dendritic cells (in vitro), murine asthma models, and pediatric asthma patients, and reveals a direct association between GITRL levels and disease severity in children. ABSTRACT Currently, there are no reliable pediatric biomarkers for assessing the severity of asthma. Therefore, the study

Rituximab for auto-immune alveolar proteinosis, a real life cohort study

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2018

Respiratory and Circulatory changes during whole-lung lavage

open access: yesTHE JOURNAL OF JAPAN SOCIETY FOR CLINICAL ANESTHESIA, 1983
3 patients suffering from alveolar proteinosis were treated with massive pulmonary lavage. The lavage method followed the technique described by Ramirez-R, in which one lung was degassed and irrigated repeatedly by liters of a warmed saline solution. During lung lavage, percutaneous and intra-arterial PO2 electrodes were used to monitor the blood gas ...

Advancing Extracellular Vesicle Research: A Review of Systems Biology and Multiomics Perspectives

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound vesicles secreted by various cell types into the extracellular space and play a role in intercellular communication. Their molecular cargo varies depending on the cell of origin and its functional state.

Radiographic evaluation of gastroliths in a group of 49 juvenile saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) in the UK

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Gastrolith ingestion is a known inherent behaviour in crocodiles. However, the interpretation of coelomic radiographs in crocodilians is challenging due to the limited informative literature in this field. Methods Dorsoventral coelomic radiographs of 49 juvenile saltwater crocodiles (Crocodylus porosus) were acquired twice, with an ...

Sphinganine‐phosphate prevents influenza infection via promoting CD8+ T cells proliferation and activation

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
This study established clinical cohorts of respiratory viral infections and identified sphinganine‐phosphate (SA) as a metabolite significantly upregulated post‐infection through metabolomic analysis. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that SA promotes the generation of effector CD8+ T cells via the SOCS1/JAK1/STAT1 pathway, which ...

Protective effect of a Protein Epitope Mimetic CCR10 antagonist, POL7085, in a model of allergic eosinophilic airway inflammation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
BACKGROUND: Potential involvement of the CCR10/CCL28 axis was recently reported in murine models of allergic asthma. If confirmed, blockade of the CCR10 receptor would represent an alternative to current asthma therapies.

Role for Complement C5 in Eosinophilic Inflammation of Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Complement activation module, particularly C5, is positively associated with eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma cohorts. Elevated C5 expression correlates with poor lung function improvement and persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Mouse model studies confirm that C5 exacerbates eosinophilic inflammation, highlighting its potential as a ...

Dynamic single-slice CT estimates whole-lung dual-energy CT variables in pigs with and without experimental lung injury

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine Experimental, 2019
Background Dynamic single-slice CT (dCT) is increasingly used to examine the intra-tidal, physiological variation in aeration and lung density in experimental lung injury.
