Lungs can regenerate damaged tissue, to a small extent. A sneeze can expel air from the lungs at speeds up to 100 miles per ...

But now, researchers at UCSF are showing it's also happening in the lungs. They found hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in human lung tissue that make red blood cells, as well as megakaryocytes ...

Birds are breathing in high levels of airborne microplastics into their lungs—and, likely, so are we, with unclear effects on our health. This is the warning of an international team of researchers, ...

Researchers have found a potential new way to slow the progression of lung fibrosis and other fibrotic diseases by inhibiting ...

Researchers have found a potential new way to slow the progression of lung fibrosis and other fibrotic diseases by inhibiting the expression or function of Piezo2, a receptor that senses mechanical ...

A Milton Keynes-based biotech start-up with a 3D human lung model that provides an alternative to animal testing has raised a ...

The human lung HSCs could also restore bone marrow in HSC-deficient mice. The discovery confirmed Looney's earlier discovery that the mouse lung and bone marrow complemented one another in ...

Human mini-lungs grown by University of Manchester scientists can mimic the response of animals when exposed to certain nanomaterials. The study at the University’s NanoCell Biology Lab at the Centre ...
