October 28, 2011 Lung damage causes proliferation of P63-expressing cells in bronchioles, migration to damaged tissue, and regeneration of alveoli.

Proliferative bronchiolitis with intraluminal polyps may be limited to the bronchioles, but often extends into respiratory bronchioles and alveoli with intra-alveolar buds of granulation tissue ...

Asthma is an exaggerated bronchoconstriction response to many physical, chemical and pharmacological agents (Law and Watson, 2005). The terminal bronchioles further subdivide into an area called the ...

It is hypothesized that these macrophages secrete chemotactic factors (ie, leukotriene B 4 and IL-8) that attract neutrophils and other inflammatory cells to the respiratory bronchioles and alveoli.

When human viruses were tested, both attached strongly to the trachea and bronchi, but virus binding to the bronchioles and alveoli (deeper within the lung) was less abundant in comparison.

Bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia, or BOOP, is an inflammatory lung disease affecting the bronchioles and alveoli. BOOP is most commonly seen in people between 40 and 60; however, it ...

The cells stick to the scaffolding and multiply to form the bronchi, bronchioles and alveoli, the tiny air sacs that exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide with the blood. PHASE 3: Construct the Vessels ...

However, compared to other avian influenza viruses, the attachment to epithelial cells by H7N9 in the bronchioles and alveoli of the lung was more abundant and the viruses attached to a broader ...

The bronchi divides into many tubes called bronchioles. The bronchioles divide until they end up in tiny air sacs called alveoli. There are millions of alveoli found within the lungs.

The current COVID-19 pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is known to target primarily the distal lung, including the terminal bronchioles and alveoli ...
