Characterisation of a New Human Alveolar Macrophage-Like Cell Line (Daisy) (2019)
Journal Article
Sadofsky, L. R., Hayman, Y. A., Vance, J., Cervantes, J. L., Fraser, S. D., Wilkinson, H. N., …Morice, A. H. (2019). Characterisation of a New Human Alveolar Macrophage-Like Cell Line (Daisy). Lung, 197(6), 687-698. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00408-019-00288-3

Purpose: There is currently no true macrophage cell line and in vitro experiments requiring these cells currently require mitogenic stimulation of a macrophage precursor cell line (THP-1) or ex vivo maturation of circulating primary monocytes. In thi... Read More about Characterisation of a New Human Alveolar Macrophage-Like Cell Line (Daisy).

Continuous cough monitoring using ambient sound recording during convalescence from a COPD exacerbation (2017)
Journal Article
Crooks, M. G., den Brinker, A., Hayman, Y., Williamson, J. D., Innes, A., Wright, C. E., …Morice, A. H. (2017). Continuous cough monitoring using ambient sound recording during convalescence from a COPD exacerbation. Lung, 195(3), 289-294. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00408-017-9996-2

Purpose Cough is common in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and is associated with frequent exacerbations and increased mortality. Cough increases during acute exacerbations (AE-COPD), representing a possible metric of clinical deteriorat...

The effects of exogenous lipid on THP-1 cells : an in vitro model of airway aspiration? (2017)
Journal Article
Hayman, Y. A., Sadofsky, L. R., Williamson, J. D., Hart, S. P., & Morice, A. H. (2017). The effects of exogenous lipid on THP-1 cells : an in vitro model of airway aspiration?. Ers Monograph, 3(1), 00026-2016. https://doi.org/10.1183/23120541.00026-2016

Chronic inflammatory diseases of the airways are associated with gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) and aspiration events. The observation of lipid laden macrophages (LLM) within the airway may indicate aspiration secondary to GOR. The proposed mechanis...

Bleomycin increases neutrophil adhesion to human vascular endothelial cells independently of upregulation of ICAM-1 and E-selectin (2016)
Journal Article
Williamson, J. D., Sadofsky, L. R., Crooks, M. G., Greenman, J., & Hart, S. P. (2016). Bleomycin increases neutrophil adhesion to human vascular endothelial cells independently of upregulation of ICAM-1 and E-selectin. Experimental Lung Research, 42(8-10), 397-407. https://doi.org/10.1080/01902148.2016.1243742

© 2016 Taylor & Francis. Aim of the Study: Bleomycin-induced lung disease is a serious complication of therapy characterized by alveolar injury, cytokine release, inflammatory cell recruitment, and eventually pulmonary fibrosis. The mechanisms unde... Read More about Bleomycin increases neutrophil adhesion to human vascular endothelial cells independently of upregulation of ICAM-1 and E-selectin.
