The pathogenesis of pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is complex. It is characterized by myofibroblast hyperplasia and deposition of collagen protein. Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is expressed in lung fibroblasts and epithelial cells, but its functions in lung homeostasis and diseases remain elusive....

The functional capacity of highly proliferative cell populations changes with age. Here, we report that the proliferative capacity of canine lung mesenchymal stromal cells (LMSCs) declines with increasing age of the donor. However, other functional changes such as reduced autophagy, reduced migratio...

In this article is presented the description of the detection unit of the whole body counter AT1316A. Is shown brief description of the mathematical processing methods. Is presented the main advantages of the offered functions.

Automated segmentation of diseases considered a necessary initial step in routine diagnosis. Lung diseases that affect the lungs, such as pneumonia or lung collapse can result in areas of consolidation or atelectasis, where lung tissue becomes denser or collapses. It can be challenging to accuratel...
