Squamous cell carcinoma of the lung is linked to smoking and requires early detection and accurate staging for effective treatment. Diagnosis involves imaging and biopsy, with the TNM system used to ...

A new kind of microscope is giving scientists a way to watch life inside cells with a clarity that feels almost unfair.

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human 'lung-on-chip' model using stem cells ...

The study, published in British scientific journal Nature, suggests that the disease may begin in basal stem cells — ...

3D-printed lungs made with living cells could help to improve lung disease prevention and treatment—and potentially one day offer a lab-grown option for use in organ transplants. University of ...

New gene expression profiling test enhances precision in assessing lung transplant rejection and injury Thermo Fisher Scientific, the world leader in serving science, has introduced a new laboratory ...

Researchers uncovered how lung cells decide whether to rebuild tissue or fight infection. This built-in “switch” may be the key to restoring the lungs’ natural repair ability. The discovery could lead ...

Alveolar macrophages are immune cells that live in the tiny air sacs of the lungs. Under normal conditions, these cells act as guardians, keeping the lungs healthy, supporting breathing, and ...

Red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to every other organ, and blood-forming stem cells must make about 200 billion new red blood cells each day to keep the oxygen flowing. For many years, ...
