While larger materials are deposited in the conducting airways, smaller ones reach the peripheral gas-exchange region and may pass the air鈥揵lood tissue barrier to enter the systemic circulation. The interaction
Environmental cadmium is widely present in soil, water, and air [2]. The annual global production of cadmium is about 13000 tons [3]. When humans are exposed to cadmium pollution, it accumulates in the body and causes multiple organ dysfunction and structural changes, including the lungs [4]...
Stretch is an essential mechanism for lung growth and development. Animal models in which fetal lungs have been chronically over or underdistended demonstrate a disrupted mix of type II and type I cells, with static overdistention typically promoting a t
The oral administrations of kefir peptides decrease the PM-induced lung inflammation process through the inhibition of NF-κB pathway in transgenic luciferase mice, proposing a new clinical application to particulate matter air pollution-induced pulmonary inflammation....
The respiratory system includes a set of organs of the human body that perform gas exchange between the human body and the outside air, organs such as the nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, lungs, etc. are among the organs. Which are widely used in the human respiratory system and...
[20] found that the NIP invaded both temporal bones and metastasized to the lungs after malignant transformation. Among the risk factors for NIP, HPV plays an important role in the pathogenesis of NIP, and the positive status of HPV infection is an independent factor related to the relapse of...
Lung ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury is a common clinical pathology associated with high mortality. The pathophysiology of lung I/R injury involves ferroptosis and elevated protein O-GlcNAcylation levels, while the effect of O-GlcNAcylation on lung I/
All work with this virus was performed in a BSL-3 laboratory by an analyst using a full-head powered-air purifying respirator and appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves and a chemically impervious Tyvek gown. 4.4. Chemical treatment of cell lines HEK-293T and A549 cells were...
Lung cancer occurs due to an uncontrollable growth of cells in the lungs. Lung cancer is prevalent in tobacco smokers. About 80percent of smokers die from lung cancer, whereby even passive smokers are also affected. However, lung cancer can also be caused by air pollution, changes in DNA, ...
Commonly, modern day human life style is encircled in an environment consisting of smoke, air pollution, ultraviolet radiations, γ radiation, several pharmaceutical drugs, etc [6] and all these cause the generation of reactive species inside the cellular compartments [7], [8]. These kinds of ...
