Data provided by the National Library of Medicine- Transforming growth factor-alpha deficiency reduces pulmonary fibrosis in transgenic mice.
- Alloreactive Th1 cells localize in lung and induce acute lung injury.
- Mice with a targeted intronic deletion in the Col1a1 gene respond to bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis with increased expression of the mutant allele.
- Collagen accumulation is decreased in SPARC-null mice with bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis.
- Idiopathic pneumonia after bone marrow transplantation: cytokine activation and lipopolysaccharide amplification in the bronchoalveolar compartment.
- Neutralization of tumor necrosis factor-alpha action delays but does not prevent lung injury induced by alloreactive T helper 1 cells.
- Adherence of adoptively transferred alloreactive Th1 cells in lung: partial dependence on LFA-1 and ICAM-1.
- Chemokine expression in Th1 cell-induced lung injury: prominence of IFN-gamma-inducible chemokines.
- Selective induction of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 in bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis.
- Interleukin-13 stimulates the proliferation of lung myofibroblasts via a signal transducer and activator of transcription-6-dependent mechanism: a possible mechanism for the development of airway fibrosis in asthma.
- Risks and outcomes of idiopathic pneumonia syndrome after nonmyeloablative and conventional conditioning regimens for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
- IL-13 and IL-1beta promote lung fibroblast growth through coordinated up-regulation of PDGF-AA and PDGF-Ralpha.
- Pulmonary function testing prior to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
- Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 deficiency amplifies acute lung injury in bleomycin-exposed mice.
- Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 deficiency abrogates obliterative airway disease after heterotopic tracheal transplantation.
