A vascularized human lung-on-a-chip reveals compartmentalized inflammatory responses in bacterial pneumonia
2024-09-20
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>The lung serves as a primary organ for gas exchange in the human body. However, during clinically apparent lung insults such as bacterial pneumonia, the blood-alveolar barrier is disrupted, immune cells are recruited, and lung biomechanics are altered. These processes impair lung function acutely with major contributions from the lung vasculature. The pulmonary vasculature normally prov...
