“So, first you have the epithelial cells, then you have the fibroblasts – we are literally creating a mimic organ that is very much like actual human lungs.” The lung models are maintained ...

They then implanted the lungs into four live rats and ... effective at replicating the behavior of actual lung tissue. In testing, the human-lung mimic and a mouse lung showed very similar ...

The human Lung Alveolus Chip is a 2-channel microfluidic ... alveolar-capillary interface also experiences cyclic mechanical movements mimicking actual breathing motions. Importantly, this living ...

About the size of a grade-schooler’s eraser, each artificial lung has little interior tubes where actual human cells are implanted. “You can think of them as avatars of human organs, if you will,” ...

Even though the pigs’ immune systems launched into action, exhibiting signs of inflammation and depositing antibodies on the donor lungs, the injured human lungs showed signs of improvement.

Chest CT is taken at the maximum level of inhalation, but actual surgery is performed in a lung-depleted state with no air. For this reason, it is difficult to find the exact location of the lung ...

The developing human lung has been mapped in unprecedented detail, identifying 144 cell states in the early stages of life, and uncovering new links between developmental cells and lung cancer.
