Progressive decline in lung function is a hallmark of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Although airway dysbiosis occurs in COPD, whether it contributes to disease progression remains unknown. Here, through a longitudinal analysis on 181 COPD individuals from two large cohorts involvi...
Progressive lung function decline is a hallmark of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Airway dysbiosis occurs in COPD, but whether it contributes to disease progression remains unknown. Here we showed, through a longitudinal analysis on two cohorts involving four UK centers, that basel...
Toxocariasis, mainly caused by Toxocara canis, and to a lesser extent, Toxocara cati, is a neglected parasitic zoonosis. The mechanisms that underlie the changes in lipid metabolism of T. canis infection in Beagle dogs' lungs remain unclear. Lipidomics is a rapidly emer...
Radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) is a major complication of thoracic radiotherapy. A previous study has indicated an association between berberine (BBR) and reduced incidence of RILI. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Here we validated the radioprotective role of BBR in mouse...
Metabolomic profiling provides real-time insights into tissue physiology and upstream molecular events. Despite its potential in cancer research, large-scale integrative studies in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remain scarce. We analyzed 262 tissue samples from 165 LUAD patients using metabolomic, t...
Lung cancer are malignant tumors with high incidence and mortality rates, and a 5-year survival rate that depends on the stage at the time of diagnosis. Screening methods for lung cancer are becoming increasingly diverse, but existing approaches lack sensitivity or specificity for early lesions, ...
The lung of yak is an important adaptive organ in the cold and low oxygen environment. Hypoxia can induce the pathological manifestations of pulmonary fibrosis in yak, but there was no study on hypoxia induced pulmonary fibrosis in yak. In this study full target metabolomics were used to conduct ...
