BACKGROUND: Analysis of vascular networks is an essential step to unravel the mechanisms regulating the physiological and pathological organization of blood vessels. So far, most of the analyses are performed using 2-dimensional projections of 3-dime...
Radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) is a dose-limiting toxicity for cancer patients receiving thoracic radiotherapy. As such, it is important to characterize metabolic associations with the early and late stages of RILI, namely pneumonitis and pulmo...

Bleomycin (BLM)-induced lung injury in mice is a valuable model for investigating the molecular mechanisms that drive inflammation and fibrosis and for evaluating potential therapeutic approaches to treat the disease. Given high variability in the BL...
The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is the mammalian central circadian pacemaker with heterogeneous neurons acting in concert while each neuron harbors a self-sustained molecular clockwork. Nevertheless, how system-level SCN signals encode time of the ...
Ground-level ozone ranks sixth among common air pollutants. It worsens lung diseases like asthma, emphysema, and chronic bronchitis. Despite recent attention from researchers, the link between exhaled breath and ozone-induced injury remains poorly un...

BACKGROUND: Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is an escalating global health issue, characterized by rising rates of morbidity and mortality annually. Consequently, further investigation of potential damage mechanisms and potential preventive strategies for PF...
Mannan-binding lectin (MBL) initiates the lectin pathway of complement and has been linked to albuminuria and mortality in diabetes. We hypothesize that MBL-associated serine protease 2 (MASP-2) deficiency will protect against diabetes-induced kidney...
