The acute respiratory distress syndrome

TL;DR: An overview of the definitions, clinical features, and epidemiology of the acute respiratory distress syndrome is provided and advances in the areas of pathogenesis, resolution, and treatment are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The acute respiratory distress syndrome.

TL;DR: Progress has been made in understanding the mechanisms responsible for the pathogenesis and the resolution of lung injury, including the contribution of environmental and genetic factors, and on developing novel therapeutics that can facilitate and enhance lung repair.

Alveolar epithelial cell mesenchymal transition develops in vivo during pulmonary fibrosis and is regulated by the extracellular matrix

TL;DR: Alveolar epithelial cells are revealed as progenitors for fibroblasts in vivo and implicate the provisional extracellular matrix as a key regulator of epithelial transdifferentiation during fibrogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

TGF-β-induced EMT: mechanisms and implications for fibrotic lung disease

TL;DR: It is hoped that this review will stimulate further consideration of the cellular mechanisms of fibrogenesis in the lung and especially the role of the epithelium in this process, potentially leading to innovative avenues of investigation and treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Alveolar progenitor and stem cells in lung development, renewal and cancer

TL;DR: There is a switch after birth, when AT2 cells function as stem cells that contribute to alveolar renewal, repair and cancer, and it is proposed that local signals regulate AT2 stem-cell activity.
