Researchers at the University of Liège (Belgium) have discovered a new population of macrophages, important innate immune cells that populate the lungs after injury caused by respiratory viruses.

Background: Krebs von den Lungen-6 (KL-6), predominantly expressed by type II alveolar cells, is linked to the prognosis and severity of interstitial lung disease (ILD). This investigation sought to ...

Iron metabolism imbalance and ferroptosis are central to PF pathogenesis, offering new therapeutic targets. Ferroptosis links oxidative stress, iron overload, and fibrotic remodeling, affecting key ...

A team of scientists at the Institute for Cell Biology (Cancer Research), University of Duisburg-Essen, has developed a simple method for the automated manufacture of induced pluripotent stem cell ...

University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine and Yale University School of Medicine, along with other collaborators, report that lung adenocarcinoma can engage nerve pathways that link the ...

Researchers have developed an automated method for growing lung organoids, making the process more efficient. Organoids, clusters of cells that contain the same cell types as full-sized organs, offer ...
