On a clear polymer chip, soft and pliable like a gummy bear, a microscopic lung comes alive - expanding, circulating, and, for the first time, protecting itself like a living organ. (Nanowerk News) On ...

This schematic shows how the small airsacs of the lung called alveoli, specifically the alveolar-capillary interface that is the major site of radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) is modeled on the ...

Air sacs in the lungs called alveoli are crucial for gas exchange and provide an important barrier against inhaled viruses and bacteria that cause respiratory diseases like flu and tuberculosis (TB).

Pulmonary function remained stable -- and in some ways improved -- among patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) who underwent non-myeloablative hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT), a prospective ...
