The lung is a primary organ for gas exchange in mammals that represents the largest
epithelial surface in direct contact with the external environment. It also serves as a crucial …

Abstract Pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute
respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and poses an unprecedented challenge …

Oxidative stress caused by the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a major
role in inflammatory processes. We hypothesized that modulation of ROS via quercetin may …

Pneumonia, such as acute lung injury (ALI), has been a type of lethal disease that is
generally caused by uncontrolled inflammatory response and excessive generation of …

Acute lung injury (ALI) and its more severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome
(ARDS) as common life-threatening lung diseases with high mortality rates are mostly …

The use of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) has been under investigation for the treatment of
several unmet medical needs, including acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress …

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is difficult to treat and is associated with a high
mortality rate. The most severe form of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) also leads to …

Oxidative stress contributes to the pathogenesis of acute lung injury. Protein S-
glutathionylation plays an important role in cellular antioxidant defense. Here we report that …

Premature infants are exposed to increased generation of reactive oxygen species, and on
the other hand, they have a deficient antioxidant defense system. Oxidative insult is a salient …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are pervasive signaling molecules in biological systems. In
humans, a lack of ROS causes chronic and extreme bacterial infections, while uncontrolled …
