Lung cancer is the second-most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer death in the United States. Over 80% of lung ...

Findings from a new study on lung development should empower the search for better treatments for lung diseases. Researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania have ...

The lung is a highly specialised organ that develops through a complex series of branching events and cellular differentiation processes. From the initial budding of the foregut, the formation of ...

Immune cells play an active and intimate role in directing the growth of human lung tissue during development, researchers find, revolutionizing our understanding of early lung development and the ...

Researchers of the University of Barcelona and the August Pi y Sunyer Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBAPS) have shown that the IGFBP3 protein plays a relevant role in human lung development. The ...

The study, published today in Cancer Cell, generated spatial transcriptomic maps in precancerous and more advanced stages of lung cancer to provide a deeper understanding of early lung cancer ...

An international research group has combined advanced single-cell technologies with studies in lung organoids to map the development of early human lung immune cells over time. Their results, which ...

Scientists have implicated a type of immune cell in the development of chronic lung disease that sometimes is triggered following a respiratory viral infection. The evidence suggests that activation ...

"Our goal in the LATIFY trial was to reinvigorate the immune response of patients with lung cancer whose tumours stopped ...

Poor air quality impacts the health of children severely. Fine particulate matter like PM2.5, coarse particles such as PM10, ...
