Researchers have developed a human in vitro model that closely mimics the complexities of radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) and radiation dose sensitivity of the human lung. Using a previously ...

Lungs are highly vulnerable to injury and infection due to continuous exposure to inhaled environmental pathogens and particles. As a result, respiratory diseases are a leading cause of disability and ...

A life-sized artificial human lung created at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology is the first diagnostic tool for understanding in real time how tiny particles move and behave in the deepest ...

A single genetic mutation in a lung cell can start rewriting the rules for the tissue around it almost immediately, ...
