LECTIN HISTOCHEMISTRY OF CHOLESTEROL CLEFT GRANULOMAS IN NON-SPECIFIC INTERSTITIAL PNEUMONIA (NSIP)
ABSTRACT Background: Cholesterol cleft granulomas with clusters of giant cells were noted to be a common feature of non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP). Objective: This study aimed to define the cell populations involved in the granulomas. Methods: The granulomas of 16 patients with cryptogenic fibrosing alveolitis (five cases with the histological features ofNSIP, five with those ofUIP...

Pulmonary disease is seen in 10-15%. It is characterized by Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), or Idiopathic Familial Pulmonary Fibrosis (IFPF).

متن کامل[Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and non-specific interstitial pneumonia].
BACKGROUND Wild-type p53 is increased during cellular responses to various stresses. Mdm2, which is induced by p53, regulates p53 protein concentrations through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. AIM To investigate whether the Mdm2 mediated ubiquitination of p53 is associated with epithelial cell apoptosis in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). METHODS Immunohistochemistry and western blot ...
متن کاملNon-specific interstitial pneumonia and Chlamydia pneumoniae infection.
Recently, the clinical features of non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) have been described. We hypothesize that recurrent infection caused by Chlamydia pneumoniae may play a role in the pathogenesis of NSIP. To prove this, we quantified serum IgA and IgG antibodies against C. pneumoniae using the enzyme linked-immunosorbent assay kit. The study included 15 patients diagnosed with NSIP, 2...
متن کاملInfluence of Smoking in Interstitial Pneumonia Presenting with a Non-Specific Interstitial Pneumonia Pattern
Objective The influence of smoking on the pathogenesis and clinical course of interstitial pneumonia has recently attracted attention. To clarify the influence of smoking on the clinical patient characteristics and therapeutic effects in patients with interstitial pneumonia presenting with a non-specific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP) pattern, we compared the clinical patient characteristics and...
