Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is a non-invasive modality that permits the characterisation of biological processes at the molecular level. Integrin αvβ6 and the chemokine receptor CXCR4 are important receptors in the pathogenesis of vari...

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a devastating lung disease associated with significant morbidity and early mortality. Despite this, the pathogenesis remains poorly understood and there is no effective disease modifying treatment. Epidemiologic...

The role of lipid laden macrophages in airways disease (2012)
Thesis
Hayman, Y. A. (2012). The role of lipid laden macrophages in airways disease. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4214940

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airway and is often associated with Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux (GOR). Lipid laden macrophages (LLM) in the airway have previously been reported indicative of aspiration secondary to GOR. We hypothesised...

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a restrictive pulmonary disorder of unknown aetiology with a relentless disease course and a median survival of 3 years after the diagnosis. It is the most common idiopathic interstitial lung disease (ILD) with... Read More about The pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.
