We have studied the effects of inhalation of 95 to 100% oxygen on the surface morphology of the bronchi and bronchioles of adult mice, using scanning electron microscopy. Denudation of cilia and truncation of the remaining cilia were commonly observed during high oxygen exposure. Bleb formation, a "moth-eaten" appearance of the non-ciliated cell surface and desquamation of unidentified cells we...
The role of an atherogenic diet in causing pulmonary fibrosis has received little attention and simvastatin has been shown to reduce pulmonary fibrosis in animal models. To determine if an atherogenic diet can induce pulmonary fibrosis and whether simvastatin treatment is beneficial by up-regulating heat shock protein 70 and 90. New Zealand white rabbits (n = 15) were divided: Group 1 (control)...
Little is known about ciliogenesis as it proceeds through the entire airway tree, from the trachea to the terminal bronchioles, especially during the postnatal period. The purpose of this study was to define the spatial and temporal (prenatal and postnatal) pattern of normal cilia development in the mouse. Three airway generations representing the entire airway tree were examined: trachea, loba...
To develop a stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) model in rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with cigarette-smoke inhalation (CSI) for 12 weeks, repetitive bacterial infection (RBI) for 8 weeks, or the combination of the two (CCR) for 12 weeks and followed up for the additional 20 weeks. Tidal volume (V(T)), peak expiratory flow (PEF) and 50% V(T) expiratory flow (EF(50)), h...
Development of smooth muscle in conducting airways begins early in fetal life. Whereas the pattern and regulation of smooth muscle differentiation are well-defined, the impact of airway growth on the process is not. To evaluate the transformations in organization during postnatal growth, smooth muscle bundle organization (size, abundance, and orientation) was mapped in five generations of dista...
Tracheobronchopathia osteochondroplastica (TO) is a rare disorder of unknown cause characterized by the presence of multiple submucosal osseous and/or cartilaginous nodules that protrude into the lumen of the trachea and large bronchi. A simultaneous diagnosis of TO and amyloidosis is rarely reported. In this report, a case initially suspected to be asthma bronchiole that could not be treated, ...
Initiation of extracorporeal life support (ECLS) is often followed by complete opacification of pulmonary parenchyma and volume loss. The optimal mechanical ventilator management and lung recruitment strategy of a pediatric patient requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is not known. We present a case of a 4-week old infant who developed a severe pertussis infection requiring ECLS. The s...
The present study was designed to investigate the histological lesions in lungs of white mice infected with Aspergillus fumigatus by intraperitoneal injection, nasal implantation, current research also examined an attempt treat these tissue using both antifungal Amphotericin B and alcoholic extract Trametes for two weeks. results showed that A. led changes represented degeneration, desquamation...
Rat and monkey are species that are used in models of human airway hyperresponsiveness. However, the wall structures of rat and monkey airways are different from each other, with that of the monkey more closely resembling that of humans. We hypothesized that differences in wall structure would explain differences in airway responsiveness. Using videomicrometry, we measured airway luminal area i...
