Bibliography: leaves 168-184. The work in this study encompasses oxygen free radical related inflammation in the peripheral lung and in lung cells. Animal and human studies have been used. Methods include cell culture with function studies, protein chemistry, animal and human physiology, and cell and lung structure through histopathology, and various forms of electron microscopy. The work resulting from this thesis has formed an important basis for understanding acute and chronic lung injury.

Abstract:
Introduction: CF (cystic fibrosis) and PCD (primary ciliary dyskinesia) are obstructive airway diseases characterised by frequent infections and neutrophilic inflammation. However, PCD has a much milder course than CF. Pilot data showed that in PCD (n=8) the relationship between LCI (lung clearance index) derived from multiple breath washout (MBW), and FEV1 (forced expiratory volume in 1 second) differed from the established correlation in CF. This thesis sought to identify the reasons. Materials and Methods: Larger PCD (n=38) and CF cohorts (n=125), a non-CF bronchiectasis comparator group (n

Abstract:
This study examined the effects of lung expansion and changes in temperature on fluid movement by the lungs in the initial period after birth. In addition, experiments with amiloride support the belief that fluid reabsorption acts via a sodium transport mechanism. Lungs from fetal guinea pigs (56-67 days of gestation) were supported in vitro for three hours, and lung liquid production rates were measured using a dye dilution technique. The average production rate in the first hour of untreated preparations was 1.30 ±0.22 ml/kg body weight per hour, and this did not change significantly during

This study was designed to gain an understanding of the family experience when an adult member has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is recognized that illness within the family affects the well-being of the family unit and the health of all members. To understand the impact of COPD upon the family, however, the literature provides only knowledge of the experience of the individual who has COPD and the spouse, not that of the family unit. Thus, the purpose of this study was to describe and explain the COPD experience from the perspective of the family unit. A qualitative method

Abstract:
The generation of oxygen free radicals by the cytosolic enzyme, xanthine oxidase (XO), has been implicated in post-ischemic or reperfusion damage in several organs. XO catalyzes the conversion of hypoxanthine to urate with the concomitant production of superoxide anion free radical (0₂̅˙) and hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). Oxygen free radical-mediated injury has also been demonstrated in inflammatory lung disease. The possible involvement of XO in oxidative injury in the lung has not yet been studied. Therefore, this research project was designed to determine whether XO is present in the lung and

Dissertation (PhD)--University of Stellenbosch, 2003.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Background to the study OLA can give rise to certain problems: 1. A significant decrease in lung volume is reported to occur in the dependent lung during OLA in the LDP. This decrease in lung volume can result in an acute increase in opposition to RV ejection. The potential problem is that the right ventricle is a thin walled structure that can generate considerably less work than the thicker walled LV. It possesses little reserve to deal with an acute rise in afterload as may occur during acute lung injury or aft

This study examined the effects of epinephrine, norepinephrine, AVP and ACh on fluid movement by the lungs of the late-term guinea pig fetus. Catecholamines and AVP are secreted in high amounts by the fetus during delivery, and could be important with respect to fetal lung fluid removal; this event is vital at the time of birth. The lungs were supported in vitro for a duration of three hours, and production rates were measured using a dye-dilution technique. The average resting production rate in terms of ml/kg‧h declined with gestational age (54-67 days gestation; n=171). There was a lesser

Abstract:
A quarter of the world's population experience wheezing. These sounds have been used for diagnosis since the time of the Ebers Papyrus (ca. 1500 BC), but the underlying physical mechanism responsible for the sounds is still poorly understood. The main purpose of this thesis is to change this, developing a theory for the onset of wheezing using both experimental and analytical approaches, with implications for both scientific understanding and clinical diagnosis. Wheezing is caused by a fluid structure interaction between the airways and the air flowing through them. We have developed the first

Abstract:
Oncogenic mutations in lung cancer further our knowledge about cancer initiation and progression, and may guide personalized treatment. The fact that targeted therapy is most effective in subsets of patients with defined molecular targets indicates the need for classification of clinically-related molecular tumor phenotypes based on the presence of oncogenic mutations, including EGFR mutations and EML4-ALK rearrangements. The identification of EGFR mutations, in up to half of lung adenocarcinomas in Asians, could predict clinical sensitivity to tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). However, test

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) causes most of the cancer deaths worldwide.

Autophagy is a highly conserved cellular process in response to stress. Tumor microenvironment (TME) is composed of both tumor cells and stromal cells.
