Microarray analysis of regional cellular responses to local mechanical stress in acute lung injury
16 Jun 2006
Abstract excerpt
Human acute lung injury is characterized by heterogeneous tissue involvement, leading to the potential for extremes of mechanical stress and tissue injury when mechanical ventilation, required to support critically ill patients, is employed. Our goal was to establish whether regional cellular responses to these disparate local mechanical conditions could be determined as a novel approach toward understanding the...
