Legumain Restrains Granuloma Formation by Inhibiting mTORC1/STAT1‐Mediated M1 Macrophage Polarization in Sarcoidosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Legumain (LGMN) is upregulated in macrophages during sarcoid‑like granuloma formation. Macrophage‑derived LGMN binds to integrin αvβ3 and suppresses mTORC1/STAT1 signaling to restrain M1 macrophage polarization. Intratracheal delivery of lipid nanoparticles carrying Lgmn plasmid DNA (pDNA) elevates LGMN expression and effectively attenuates pulmonary ...

Effect of Segmental Bronchoalveolar Lavage on Quantitative Computed Tomography of the Lung [PDF]

, 2011
Rationale and Objectives: With employment of both multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) and endobronchial procedures in multicenter studies, effects of timing of endobronchial procedures on quantitative imaging (Q-MDCT) metrics is a question of ...

Endogenous Ceramide 24:1 Constrains Th17‐Driven Neutrophilic Inflammation by Antagonizing EP2 Signaling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cer24:1 levels are reduced in neutrophilic asthma and inversely correlate with disease severity and airway neutrophilia. Restoring Cer24:1 suppresses pathogenic Th17 differentiation by engaging EP2 on CD4+ T cells, thereby dampening the JAK2–STAT3–RORγt axis and reducing IL‐17 production.

Serial bronchoscopic lung lavage in pulmonary alveolar proteinosis under local anesthesia

Lung India, 2015
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disease, characterized by alveolar accumulation of surfactant composed of proteins and lipids due to defective surfactant clearance by alveolar macrophages.

Inhaled Interleukin-10 before and after induction of experimental endotoxemia in the rat : effects on the inflammatory response [PDF]

, 2007
To determine the effects of inhaled IL-10 at different doses and different time points on the pulmonary and systemic inflammatory response during endotoxemia, 48 ventilated, anaesthetized rats (mean body weight ± standard deviation, 500 ± 33g) were ...

Exosomes and Exosomal miRNA in Respiratory Diseases [PDF]

, 2016
Exosomes are nanosized vesicles released from every cell in the body including those in the respiratory tract and lungs. They are found in most body fluids and contain a number of different biomolecules including proteins, lipids, and both mRNA and ...

Hepatocyte BDNF Acts as a Novel Immune Checkpoint to Restrain TLR4‐Mediated Acute Hepatitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies hepatocyte‐derived BDNF as an endogenous TLR4 antagonist that alleviates acute hepatitis. BDNF is downregulated in hepatocytes via REST‐mediated transcriptional repression during ALI/ALF. Mechanistically, BDNF binds to TLR4 on macrophages to suppress inflammation.

A Hereditary Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis Caused by a Novel Hemizygous Variation of the CSF2RA Gene Case Report and Literature Review

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine
Background Hereditary pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare interstitial lung disease caused by variations in genes such as CSF2RA and CSF2RB, which disrupt granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor signaling and impair surfactant ...

Whole lung lavage.

Monaldi archives for chest disease = Archivio Monaldi per le malattie del torace, 1995
Bronchoalveolar lavage is universally employed as a diagnostic procedure and also, both in the massive (whole lung) and limited forms, has important therapeutic applications. Since the second half of the century whole lung lavage (WLL) has been applied in patients with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis and has proved successful. The procedure has improved
