introduction: pulmonary involvement secondary to systemic sclerosis (ssc) is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in ssc patients. we designed this study to determine the correlation of important lung function parameters with lung high resolution ct (hrct) scan findings.materials and methods: thirty–two consecutive diffuse ssc patients with pulmonary fibrosis were enrolled in this cross-s...
Human Mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) secrete products (supernatants) that are anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial. We have previously shown that hMSCs decrease inflammation and Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in the in vivo murine model of Cystic Fibrosis (CF). Cystic Fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disease in which pulmonary infection and inflammation becomes the major cause of morbidity and morta...
Inhalation of silica dust is associated with pulmonary fibrosis. Therefore, substitute abrasive materials have been suggested for use in abrasive blasting operations. To date, toxicological evaluation of most substitute abrasives has been incomplete. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare the pulmonary toxicity of a set of substitute abrasives (garnet, staurolite, coal slag, spec...
The lungs are continuously exposed to inhaled particles and irritants. Tobacco smoking is the leading cause of several airway diseases, including lung cancer, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In COPD, repeated exposure to cigarette smoke induces chronic inflammation and structural remodelling of the airways, with peribronchial fibrosis and epitheli...
Mediators of inflammation, oxidative stress, and chemoattractants drive the hypoxemic mechanisms that accompany pulmonary fibrosis. Patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis commonly have obstructive sleep apnea, which potentiates the hypoxic stimuli for oxidative stress, culminating in systemic inflammation and generalized vascular endothelial damage. Comorbidities like pulmonary hypertensio...
Matrix metalloproteinases promote inflammation and fibrosis in asbestos-induced lung injury in mice.
Inhalation of asbestos fibers causes pulmonary inflammation and eventual pulmonary fibrosis (asbestosis). Although the underlying molecular events are poorly understood, protease/antiprotease and oxidant/antioxidant imbalances are believed to contribute to the disease. Implicated in other forms of pulmonary fibrosis, the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have not been examined in asbestosis. We ...
Unusual forms of pulmonary hypertension include pulmonary hypertension related to mediastinal fibrosis and the use of serotonergic drugs. Here, we describe a patient with diffuse mediastinal fibrosis and pulmonary hypertension while she was on dopamine agonist therapy. A young woman, who was treated with cabergoline and bromocriptine for hyperprolactinemia, presented with progressive dyspnea ov...
