Background Sepsis patients with coagulation abnormalities may be a major impact on the outcome, miR-122 is a serum signature for liver injury and a prognostic predictor for sepsis patients.The aim of
Objective To investigate the expression pattern of histone deacetylase 9 inperipheral blood of patients with allergic bronchial asthma and its regulatory effect on the balance of Th17/Treg cells invol
Objective Hypoglossal motoneurons (HMs) innervate the genioglossus muscle, a tongue protrude, play a key role in the maintenance of upper airway patency during respiration.
Rationale Cancer is one of the worlds most serious diseases at present.Metastasis, the major cause of cancer mortality, is frequently a final and fatal step in the progression of solid malignancies an
Background Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) was driven by the intrinsic response to hypoxia of pulmonary arterial smooth muscle.Hypoxia resulted in pulmonary hypertension and vascular remodeli
BACKGROUND Emphysematous change on computed tomography (CT) during the stable phase of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is reported to correlate with prognosis of COPD.Acute exacerbation o
Background Sarcoidosis pleural disease is uncommon.Most published cases are not pathologically proven.Medical thoracoscopy permits internists detecting pleural cavity directly and increases the diagno
Objective To deternine whether the mannose receptor(MR) is involved in asthmatic pathophysiological mechanism and regulates the endocytosis activity of alveolar macrophages(AMs).
Background Airway remodeling is a repair process occurring after airway injury and involves a wide array of pathophysiologic features, resulting in increased airway hyperres-ponsiveness in asthma.Thym
Background Although viruses are thought to cause epithelial cell injury, it remains unclear whether virus promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).In this study, we established Epstein-Barr vir
