Mesenchymal Stromal Cell-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Reduce Lung Inflammation and Damage in Nonclinical Acute Lung Injury: Implications for COVID-19

Researchers identified a role for MSC-extracellular vesicles in immune modulation and cellular salvage in a model of SARS-CoV-2 induced acute lung injury using pulmonary epithelial cells and exposure to cytokines or the SARS-CoV-2 receptor binding domain.

LncRNA NEAT1 Aggravates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Acute Lung Injury by Regulating the miR-98-5p/TLR4 Axis

Mouse and cell ALI models were constructed by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). NEAT1 knockdown efficiently attenuated LPS-induced ALI and reduced LPS-induced elevation of cytokines both in vitro and in vivo
