Journal ArticleDOI

Antioxidant treatment ameliorates respiratory syncytial virus-induced disease and lung inflammation.

TL;DR: Modulation of oxidative stress represents a potential novel pharmacologic approach to ameliorate RSV-induced acute lung inflammation and potentially prevent long-term consequences associated with RSV infection, such as bronchial asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adenosine-dependent airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness in partially adenosine deaminase-deficient mice.

TL;DR: Elevations in adenosine can directly impact lung inflammation and physiology, and this finding may have important implications in the regulation of pulmonary inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation of Stachybotrys from the lung of a child with pulmonary hemosiderosis.

TL;DR: This case is reported the first case in which Stachybotrys was isolated from the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of a child with pulmonary hemorrhage and recovered completely after his immediate removal from the environment and subsequent cleaning of his home.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decreased bacterial clearance from the lungs of mice following primary respiratory syncytial virus infection.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that RSV infection decreases bacterial clearance, potentially predisposing to secondary bacterial pneumonia despite increased lung cellular inflammation, and suggested that functional changes occur in the recruited neutrophils that may contribute to the decreased bacterial clearance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Time course of hemosiderin production by alveolar macrophages in a murine model

TL;DR: The findings demonstrate the validity of the Balb/c mice model for the study of HLM production after blood aspiration and evaluate the effect of a single blood aspiration on the recruitment of inflammatory cells within the BAL.
