Different doses of exogenous surfactant for treatment of meconium aspiration syndrome in newborn rabbits.
(2004-06-01)
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of 2 different doses of exogenous surfactant on pulmonary mechanics and on the regularity of pulmonary parenchyma inflation in newborn rabbits. METHOD: Newborn rabbits were submitted to ...
Deceiving SARS-CoV-2 molecular-tropism clues – A combinational contemporary strategy
Several attempts to control the dreadfulness of SARS-CoV-2 are still underway. Based on the literature evidences
we have speculated a prospective contemporary remedy, which was categorized into Specificity, Remedy, and ...
Increased peripheral blood TCD4(+) counts and serum SP-D levels in patients with chronic paracoccidioidomycosis, during and after antifungal therapy
(Fundaco Oswaldo Cruz, 2017-11-01)
BACKGROUND The main clinical forms of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) are the acute/subacute form (AF) and the chronic form (CF), and they both display considerable clinical variability. The immune responses of PCM patients, ...
Thromboxane mediates the increase in alveolar surfactant pool induced by free fatty acid infusion in the rabbit
(1984)
Intravenous infusion of free fatty acid (FFA) produces pulmonary edema and an increase in the alveolar surfactant content of the rabbit. In order to identify a likely mediator of this lung response to FFA, we used inhibitors ...
Numerical analysis of the Rayleigh instability in capillary tubes: The influence of surfactant solubility
(American Institute of Physics, 2006-12)
A two-dimensional (2D) free surface flow model already used to study the Rayleigh instability of thin films lining the interior of capillary tubes under the presence of insoluble surfactants [D. M. Campana, J. Di Paolo, ...
Bleomycin-induced chronic lung damage does not resemble human idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
(AMER THORACIC SOC, 2001)
Administration of bleomycin into the lungs of experimental animals has been utilized as a model to understand human pulmonary fibrosis. Most of the studies, however, have focused on early stages of the lung reaction. We ...
Effect of natural porcine surfactant in Staphylococcus aureus induced pro-inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species generation in monocytes and neutrophils from human blood
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-08-01)
Surfacen (R) is a clinical surfactant preparation of porcine origin. in the present study, we have evaluated the effect of Surfacen (R) in the modulation of oxidative burst in monocytes and neutrophils in human blood and ...
