From the classic watermelon and mint to the more unusual unicorn hoops and gummy bears, it's well known that vapes come in a ...

The team claimed that a specific combination of chemicals found within berry vapes impaired the mice's function of 'alveolar ...

Scientists tested the effects of flavored e-cigarette vapor on mice and compared the effects on the lungs with unflavored vapor.

Major Finding: Alveolar macrophages (AM) induce dormancy in early disseminated cancer cells (DCC) in the lung. Concept: TGF-β2-TGF-βRIII signaling mediates DCC dormancy and is subverted during ...

A human cell culture model of the lung's most important immune cells, alveolar macrophages, helped make a key finding that is ...

Division of Genome Morphology, Department of Functional, Morphological and Regulatory Science, Faculty of Medicine, Tottori University, Yonago, Japan. Alveolar macrophages (AM) are a main population ...

A study was undertaken to determine whether relative CS insensitivity is present in alveolar macrophages from patients with severe asthma and its association with p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase ...

Other macrophage models have been developed but lack certain features unique to alveolar macrophages. The AML model solves both issues by starting with a simple blood draw from donors.

Berry-flavored vapes may pose significant risks to lung health, as new research reveals their potential to paralyze immune ...

A study utilizing alveolar macrophage-like (AML) cells revealed that tumor necrosis factor (TNF) is critical for fighting tuberculosis but not other infections. The findings challenge existing beliefs ...

因此，该研究结果表明，肺泡巨噬细胞可以充当乳腺癌转移免疫屏障，诱导并且维持播散至肺部的乳腺癌细胞处于休眠状态，转化生长因子β2信号传导下调，可使癌细胞能够克服巨噬细胞产生癌症生长抑制作用。该研究结果为 催眠乳腺癌细胞、避免乳腺癌转移奠定了基础。

The findings were published in the journal Cell. The study is titled, "Lung resident alveolar macrophages regulate the timing ...
