We therefore examined IL-8 expression by immunohistochemistry in lung tissue from neonates with hyaline membrane disease, from fetuses with amniotic infection, and from a fetal control group with ...

Although lung-protective ventilation works in part by reducing lung inflammation, inhibition of inflammatory pathways with anti-inflammatory agents, such as steroids, has failed to demonstrate ...

In the injured alveolus, there is apoptosis or necrosis of the epithelium, denudation of the basement membrane, influx of inflammatory cells, activation of macrophages and neutrophils, with ...

Some COVID-19 patients have experienced silent hypoxia, a condition causing low oxygen levels (without obvious symptoms). This condition can be fatal.

Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is a mechanical circulatory support (MCS) modality capable of temporary replacement of heart and lung function. Its historical development is ...

β-Glucan-mediated trained immunity activates alveolar macrophages which exacerbates acute lung injury induced by LPS.

HTV-PV1d lungs exhibited hallmark histopathology—alveolar hemorrhage, neutrophil infiltration, and hyaline membranes—alongside ultrastructural damage to alveolar type II epithelial cells ...
