Granulomatous lung diseases are a heterogeneous group of disorders that have a wide spectrum of pathologies with variable clinical manifestations and outcomes.Precise clinical evaluation, laboratory testing, pulmonary function testing, radiological imaging including high-resolution computed tomography and often histopathological assessment contribu
Biotechnological 2-Phenylethanol Production: Recent Developments
2-Phenylethanol (2-PE) is a key flavor compound with a rose-like scent, Dry Mops used in the cosmetics, perfume, home care and food industries.This aroma compound can be obtained naturally from various flowers, however chemical synthesis is the most used route to meet market demand.The increasing interest in natural products has led to the developm
Long Non-Coding RNA lncXIRP1 Regulates the Proliferation and Apoptosis of Pig Leydig Cells
Leydig cells (LCs) originate from stem Leydig cells (SLCs) and synthesize testosterone, a hormone indispensable for the development, sustenance, and functionality of the male reproductive system.Accumulating evidence suggests that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivotal roles in animal reproductive processes, yet the functional contributions of
Development of human alveolar epithelial cell models to study distal lung biology and disease
Summary: Many acute and chronic diseases affect the distal lung alveoli.Alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) lines are PROMASIL MILK CHOCOLATE needed to better model these diseases.We used de-identified human remnant transplant lungs to develop a method to establish AEC lines.The lines grow well in 2-dimensional (2D) culture as epithelial monolayers expr
Effect of Tree Phenology on LiDAR Measurement of Mediterranean Forest Structure
Retrieval of forest biophysical properties using airborne LiDAR is known to differ between leaf-on and leaf-off states of deciduous trees, but much less is understood about the within-season effects of leafing phenology.Here, we compare two LiDAR surveys separated by just six weeks in spring, in order to assess whether LiDAR variables were influenc
