Human Lung Chip reveals the effects of breathing motions on lung immune responses. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2022 / 04 / 220408083847.htm ...

Even in the face of an immune response, though, the lungs looked great. At 24 hours, their ability to undergo gas exchange and the partial pressure of oxygen inside them increased, while negative ...

It’s a pumping lung in a box, basically. Al Jazeera America specifies that its more properly known as the Organ Care System (OCS) but it’s basically a human donor long being kept alive and ...

Human lungs contain undifferentiated human lung stem cells nested in niches in the distal airways. These cells are self-renewing, clonogenic, and multipotent in vitro.

Our lungs are not identical. Our right lung has three lobes, and the left lung only two to make room for our heart. Lungs are ...

Researchers have developed a human in vitro model that closely mimics the complexities of radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) and radiation dose sensitivity of the human lung. Using a previously ...

The human lung HSCs also could restore bone marrow in HSC-deficient mice. The discovery confirmed Looney’s earlier discovery that the mouse lung and bone marrow complemented one another in producing ...

Acosta-Plasencia, M., et al. (2024). Discovering genes and microRNAs involved in human lung development unveils IGFBP3/miR-34a dynamics and their relevance for alveolar differentiation.
