TL;DR: In this paper, a compartment-specific study was conducted to elucidate the expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) in pulmonary hypertension, and the expression was found to be correlated with the severity of pulmonary hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI
Papain Degrades Tight Junction Proteins of Human Keratinocytes In Vitro and Sensitizes C57BL/6 Mice via the Skin Independent of its Enzymatic Activity or TLR4 Activation
Caroline Stremnitzer,Caroline Stremnitzer,Krisztina Manzano-Szalai,Anna Willensdorfer,Philipp Starkl,Mario Pieper,Peter König,Michael Mildner,Erwin Tschachler,Ursula Reichart,Erika Jensen-Jarolim,Erika Jensen-Jarolim +11 more
TL;DR: The results show that papain affects the skin barrier by increasing transepidermal water loss, degrading TJ proteins and inducing vasodilation, and papain has all features to act as a strong allergen via the skin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autofluorescence multiphoton microscopy for visualization of tissue morphology and cellular dynamics in murine and human airways
Sarah Kretschmer,Mario Pieper,Gereon Hüttmann,Torsten Bölke,Barbara Wollenberg,Leigh M. Marsh,Holger Garn,Peter König +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicate that autofluorescence-based imaging can detect previously unknown immune cell interactions in the airways and holds the potential to be used during diagnostic procedures in humans if integrated into a bronchoscope.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progress in understanding mucus abnormalities in cystic fibrosis airways.
TL;DR: Normal airways below the carina maintain an essentially sterile environment via a multi-pronged innate defence system that includes mucus clearance via mucociliary clearance and cough, multiple antimicrobials and cellular components including macrophages and neutrophils.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dynamic contrast in scanning microscopic OCT.
Michael Münter,Malte vom Endt,Mario Pieper,Malte Casper,Martin Ahrens,Tabea Kohlfaerber,Ramtin Rahmanzadeh,Peter König,Gereon Hüttmann,Hinnerk Schulz-Hildebrandt +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate dynamic contrast with a scanning frequency-domain OCT (FD-OCT), which is a promising tool for the histological analysis of unstained tissues.
