AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
The lungs are divided, both structurally and functionally, into two distinct components, the proximal airways, which conduct air, and the peripheral airways, which mediate gas exchange. The mechanisms that control the specification of these two structures ...
Acute and long-term (up to 56 days) evolution of geometry, structural properties, vascular smooth muscle (VSM) tone and histomorphometric properties of the rat common carotid arteries under induced hypertension were investigated. Hypertension was induced i ...
The biomechanical adaptation of the arterial wall to hypertension has been studied extensively in recent years; however, the exact biomechanical contribution of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) during the adaptation process in conduit vessels is not kn ...
Progress in photodynamic therapy (PDT) depends on the development of: (1) photosensitizers, (2) optical devices among which are lasers and light delivery systems, and (3) clinical procedure. The light delivery systems which are the focus of this article ar ...
The serum levels of interferon (IFN) were measured in 31 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Among the 31 patients, 8 (25%) showed IFN in the sera: in 4 patients IFN titers of 16 U/ml, and in the other 4 patients titers of greater than or equ ...
In recent years, optical gas detectors based on a tunable diode laser absorption spectrometer has become more and more important for monitoring trace gases in atmospheric, medical, and industrial processes. In the medical field, blood gases, essentially pO ...
BACKGROUND: Inflammation is a hallmark of acute lung injury and chronic airway diseases. In chronic airway diseases, it is associated with profound tissue remodeling. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) is a ligand-activated transc ...
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the genes HXK2 and REG1 are believed to play a central role in carbon catabolite repression, acting on multiple pathways in the central metab. The present study aimed at quantifying the effect of deletion of genes HXK2 or REG1, ...
Intravenous administration of perfluorocarbon (PFC) compounds can lead to pulmonary hyperinflation and respiratory distress in some mammals. This study was designed to quantify the effects of two PFC emulsions on the dynamic behavior of lung surfactant and ...
Perfluorocarbon (PFC) compounds induce pulmonary hyperinflation and respiratory distress in some animals following intravenous administration. This study was designed to quantify the effects of two PFC emulsions on lung volumes and compliance and to identi ...
