Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a progressive interstitial lung disease (ILD) characterized by excessive fibrotic tissue deposition in the pulmonary parenchyma. The term "pulmonary" refers to the lungs, ...

The Lee laboratory studies the mechanisms governing homeostatic turnover and reparative programs in stem cells, with a focus on elucidating how tissue perturbations lead to lung disease. We ...

"Understanding how miR-34a regulates IGFBP3 expression could facilitate the future development of targeted therapies that promote proper alveolar growth and improve lung function in neonates with ...

The sisters that Neehus studied had several lung abnormalities: a history of respiratory infections, polycystic lung disease, and pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP), a disorder characterized by lung ...

and there is overlap between the regulation of postnatal lung development and inflammatory, apoptotic, alveolar fluid clearance, and repair mechanisms. Therefore, there is a different biological ...

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are delivered directly into the lungs using a bronchoscope (CIBA method), where they migrate through the alveolar space and interact with immune cells—such as ...
