Handling of Bioactive Materials by the Lung
TL;DR: The primitive lung was little more than an air sac containing minute vessels in its walls for gas exchange that served as an accessory organ of breathing that allowed fishes seeking refuge from oxyg...

The expression of TIA-1+ cytolytic-type granules and other cytolytic lymphocyte-associated markers in CD30+ anaplastic large cell lymphomas (ALCL): Correlation with morphology, immunophenotype, ultrastructure, and clinical features
Raymond E. Felgar,Kevin E. Salhany,Kevin E. Salhany,William R Macon,William R Macon,Giuseppe G. Pietra,Giuseppe G. Pietra,Marsha C Kinney,Marsha C Kinney +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that TIA-1 expression was seen in 12 of 20 (60%) T or null cell ALCLs with a cytoplasmic, granular distribution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mesothelial cell inclusions in mediastinal lymph nodes mimicking metastatic carcinoma.
TL;DR: Two extremely unusual cases in which metastatic cancer was mimicked by mesothelial cell inclusions in mediastinal lymph nodes are reported, with the pattern of cytokeratin immunoreactivity consistent with a mesOThelial cell: namely, stronger Immunoreactivity in a perinuclear location with some fading at the cell periphery.

Glutamine Enhancement of Structure and Function in Transplanted Small Intestine in the Rat
W. Frankel,Wei Zhang,Juan Afonso,David M. Klurfeld,Sidney H. Don,Elissa Laitin,David H. Deaton,Emma E. Furth,Giuseppe G. Pietra,Ali Naji,John L. Rombeau +10 more
TL;DR: Whether glutamine improves graft structure and function, the optimal route of glutamine delivery (intravenous vs direct infusion into the graft), and the effect of glutamines on ultrastructure of the graft enterocyte are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The alveolar-capillary membrane and pulmonary edema.
TL;DR: Pulmonary edema represents the extravasation of a filtrate of plasma directly from pulmonary capillaries into alveoli as the result of one of two alternative mechanisms: an imbalance of forces operating across a normal alveolar-capillary barrier so that reabsorptive forces cannot cope with the high transcapillary filtration rates.
