UCLA researchers have successfully grown miniature lungs from stem cells—complete with their own functioning blood vessel ...

An alveolar–capillary diffusion limitation to oxygen, essentially reflecting a diffusion–perfusion defect, 30 predominates in advanced stages of the syndrome.

Blood clotting (thrombosis) in the capillary vessels of the lungs is one of the first consequences of severe COVID-19, even preceding the respiratory distress caused by diffuse alveolar damage ...

Using a previously developed microfluidic human Lung Alveolus Chip lined by human lung alveolar epithelial cells interfaced with lung capillary cells to recreate the alveolar-capillary interface ...

Childhood interstitial lung disease (chILD) is a rare disorder that affects babies, children, and teens. Get an overview of what it is and its causes, diagnosis, and treatment.

Background —Pulmonary diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (Dlco), alveolar capillary membrane diffusing capacity (Dm), and pulmonary capillary blood volume (Vc) are all significantly reduced after ...
