Mineral dusts in the occupational setting are associated with poor lung health, however very little is known about the impact of heterogeneous community...
We propose that mechanical abnormalities of the airway wall acquired through disrupted fetal growth impact susceptibility to disease
The aim of our investigation was to assess the chemical composition of a range of e-liquids available in Australia, focusing on nicotine and other potentially harmful compounds
This study demonstrates novel intrinsic differences in tight junctions gene and protein expression between airway epithelial cells of children with and without asthma
Apically located tight junctions in airway epithelium perform a fundamental role in controlling macromolecule migration through paracellular spaces.
The rat model demonstrates that intrauterine growth restriction leads to a more heterogeneous distribution of airway lumen calibre in adulthood
In disease settings, vitamin D may be important for maintaining optimal lung epithelial integrity and suppressing inflammation, but less is known of its effects prior to disease onset.
This work initially examines particle deposition in a Weibull-type geometry, comparing traditional computational fluid dynamics approaches with a novel...
All alterations to lung mechanics following in utero arsenic exposure were recovered by adulthood.
In healthy individuals, deep inspirations (DIs) taken prior to a bronchial challenge reduce the bronchoconstrictor response, which is termed...
