Journal ArticleDOI

The endogenous capacity to produce proinflammatory mediators by the ex vivo human perfused lung.

TL;DR: The ex vivo-perfused lung has a marked endogenous capacity to produce inflammatory mediators over the course of short-term perfusion that is not significantly influenced by donor lung characteristics or the presence of exogenous blood, and only minimally affected by the introduction of systemic bacteremia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endogenous and exogenous cell-based pathways for recovery from acute respiratory distress syndrome.

TL;DR: The cellular and molecular mechanisms that damage the alveolar-capillary barrier, producing acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), are summarized and the latest understanding of endogenous repair processes is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Visualization of Fra-1/AP-1 activation during LPS-induced inflammatory lung injury using fluorescence optical imaging

TL;DR: Inappropriate lung inflammatory response following oxidant and toxicant exposure can lead to abnormal repair and disease pathogenesis, including fibrosis as mentioned in this paper, and early detection of molecular and cell...
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhaled activated protein C: a novel therapy for acute lung injury?

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that inhaled APC improved oxygenation and lung aeration in a sheep model of lipopolysaccharide-induced ALI, but did not alter lung water or hemodynamics.
