bronchial epithelial cells

[Scientific Reports] Using mouse and cell culture models, the authors evaluated the effects of incense smoke exposure on airway hyperresponsiveness, expression of multiple epithelial tight junction- and adherens junction-associated mRNAs and proteins in the lungs, and the barrier function of bronchial epithelial cells assessed by transepithelial electronic resistance.

[PLOS Biology] By integrating viral sequencing data from patient material, virus stocks, and passaging experiments, together with kinetic virus replication data from nonhuman Vero-CCL81 cells and primary differentiated human bronchial epithelial cells (BEpCs), scientists observed several SARS-CoV-2 features that associated with distinct phenotypes.

[Journal of Translational Medicine] In vivo, the role of panaxydol (PX) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury in mice was tested by determination of LPS-induced pulmonary inflammation, pulmonary edema and ferroptosis. In vitro, BEAS-2B cells were used to investigate the molecular mechanisms by which PX functions via determination of inflammation, ferroptosis and their relationship.

[Respiratory Research] BEAS-2B cells were exposed to house dust mite and the expressions of PGC-1α and E-cadherin were examined by immunoblotting.

[Scientific Reports] The biological functions of D. rotundifolia were explored in vitro following the treatment of bronchial epithelial cells, which are the potential targets of the pharmacological effects of the herbal medicine.

[Microorganisms] miRNA expression profiles in human bronchial epithelial cells were evaluated during infection with standard and clinical K. pneumoniae strains.
