In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers discuss the role of a surfactant-mediated inflammatory response employed by human lungs against the severe acute respiratory ...

Surfactants are detergent-like substances in the lungs that dramatically lower the surface tension of the fluid within the air sacs. Particles—including infectious microbes—locate to the distal ...

The study presents data on the possible connection of respiratory pathologies like pneumonia in a cohort of dolphins with altered composition and concomitant perturbed biophysical properties of ...

In late 2019, as the US saw a surge of vaping-related lung injuries, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned against e-cigarette use. Despite the warning, e-cigarette sales have ...
