Rutgers Health researchers have discovered that networks of misplaced immune cells drive an aggressive lung disease, ...

This progressive lung disease transforms healthy tissue into stiff, scarred areas making breathing difficult. Learn the ...

Scientists at the University of Virginia School of Medicine have uncovered a key reason why some people continue to ...

Research identifies how viral respiratory infection damages macrophages and suggests treatment with a pre-existing FDA approved drug.

The result was stubborn inflammation and lung scarring. The scientists found persistent peroxisome impairment in both lab mice and human patients after severe COVID-19 infections. They were able to ...

Researchers have uncovered changes in the cellular response throughout lung damage caused by SARS-CoV-2—the virus behind COVID-19. The team revealed distinct phases where waves of immune responses ...

We now have a better sense of what might be behind those changes, including the role of the widespread inflammation that COVID can cause.

A recent study from the Women’s Guild Lung Institute at Cedars-Sinai suggests that zinc could help reverse lung damage in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). The findings, published in ...

In late-stage DAD, the researchers saw an increase of markers associated with lung fibrosis – a lung pathology that causes scarring and stiffness in lung tissue, making it difficult to breathe. The ...
