Researchers have created a comprehensive spatiotemporal atlas of the developing mouse lung, providing unprecedented insights into the molecular and cellular processes that shape this vital organ ...

Japanese researchers have generated lung cells directly from mouse tissue. These lung cells are called Alveolar Epithelial Type 2 (AT2 cells). A team led by Professor Makoto Ishii from Nagoya ...

A cell therapy preserves muscle structure and function in laboratory mice with a type of disease similar to Duchenne muscular ...

Distinct Mesenchymal Lineages and Niches Promote Epithelial Self-Renewal and Myofibrogenesis in the Lung. Cell, 2017; 170 (6): 1134 DOI: 10.1016/j.cell.2017.07.034 ...

The fact that the lung-on-a-chip behaves so much like the real mouse lung is an encouraging sign that ethically acceptable and cheaper alternatives to animal testing may be on the way.

Using a neonatal mouse model, researchers at the University of Alabama at Birmingham have shown that changes in the microbiota of the gut contribute to this dangerous lung injury. The changes ...

Charitharth Vivek Lal, M.D., and University of Alabama at Birmingham colleagues have used a novel and first-of-its-kind newborn mouse model to study the effect of high oxygen concentrations, or ...

So my aim was to uncover the mechanism underlying the transformation of lung adenocarcinoma to small cell lung cancer in a mouse model," said study lead Dr. Eric Gardner, a postdoctoral fellow in ...

Scientists now describe a mouse model of lung cancer that develops resistance to TKI drugs in at least some of the same ways that humans do. Lung cancer occurs in these mice due to a mutation in ...

Using a newly developed mouse model of acute lung injury, researchers found that exposure to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein alone was enough to induce COVID-19-like symptoms including severe ...
