Abstract

Bleomycin-induced lung injury is an established murine model of human pulmonary fibrosis. Although procoagulant molecules (e.g., tissue factor [TF]) and fibrinolytic components (e.g., urokinase [u-PA] and type 1 plasminogen activator inhibitor [PAI-1]) have been detected in alveolar fluid from injured lungs, the origin of these molecules remains unknown. We therefore examined the expression of procoagulant and fibrinolytic components in relation to the distribution of parenchymal fibrin in bleomycin-injured lungs. Extravascular fibrin localized to the alveolar and extracellular matrix in injured lung tissue. Injured lung tissue extracts contained elevated levels of PAI-1 activity and decreased levels of u-PA activity. Whole lung PAI-1 and TF mRNAs were dramatically induced by lung injury. In situ hybridization of injured lungs revealed that PAI-1, u-PA, and TF mRNAs were induced within the fibrin-rich fibroproliferative lesions, primarily in fibroblast-like and macrophagelike cells, respectively, while TF mRNA was also induced in perilesional alveolar cells. Taken together, these observations suggest that the induction of PAI-1 and TF gene expression plays and important role in the formation and persistence of extracellular fib...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.
