Macrophage TNF-α mediates parathion-induced airway hyperreactivity in guinea pigs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) are implicated in human asthma. We previously demonstrated that, at concentrations that do not inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity, the OP parathion causes airway hyperreactivity in guinea pigs as a result of ...

Lung maneuvers of large amplitudes for probing physiological alterations in mouse models of asthma

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Lung maneuvers of small amplitudes, such as the ones performed in oscillometry, are the current gold standard to probe lung mechanics in animals, but they are insensitive to detect baseline physiological alterations in mouse models of asthma. Herein, lung maneuvers of different amplitudes were compared in two mouse models of asthma.

Transoesophageal echocardiography in the management of whole lung lavage

open access: yesBritish Journal of Anaesthesia, 1998
The effects of two lung ventilation, one lung ventilation and alveolar lavage on right ventricular mechanics in a patient have been observed using transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE). Alveolar lavage resulted in additional stresses to those of one lung ventilation (OLV) and the point when these were noted to be resulting in right ventricular ...

Equine models in translational medicine: A comparative approach to human health

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This diagram summarizes and contrasts rodent and equine models, outlining their strengths, limitations, and applications. Horses offer naturally occurring diseases, genetic and physiological similarities to humans, and suitability for longitudinal and clinical‐scale studies.

Autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis successfully treated with lung lavage in an adolescent patient: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2021
Background Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis is a rare interstitial lung disease characterized by accumulating surfactant materials in the alveoli. The autoimmune form is by far the most common in adults, while in the pediatric age group, the vast majority ...

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.

Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis with Respiratory Failure-Anaesthetic Management of Whole Lung Lavage

open access: yesIndian Journal of Anaesthesia, 2009
Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disorder characterized by accumulation of amorphous acellular phospholipid material in the lungs. Whole lung lavage is the standard therapy which gives dramatic clinical improve-ment and offers a long term ...

The effectiveness of N-acetylcysteine for an adult case of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis: A case report

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2019
Introduction: Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis is a rare disease that is characterized by accumulation of surfactant and phospholipids in the pulmonary alveoli. The current mainstay of treatment is whole lung lavage.

Inhibitory effect of calotropis gigantea extract on ovalbumin-induced airway inflammation and arachidonic acid induced inflammation in a murine model of asthma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The root of Calotropis gigantea has been reported as a traditional folkloric medicine in treatment of asthma in the Indian literature. Root contain α-and β-amyrin are reported to possess anti-lipoxygenase activity.
