Denmark's Genmab has decided not to continue the development of a drug for cancer, acasunlimab, which had reached phase 3 testing, after a review of its medicines pipeline. The decision to end the ...

Researchers at the Francis Crick Institute and AlveoliX have developed the first human lung-on-chip model using stem cells ...

For the first time, a breathing lung model has been made using cells from only one person. Announced on January 1, the ...

Lung cancer is the second-most common cancer and the leading cause of cancer death in the United States. Over 80% of lung cancers are non-small cell lung cancers, in which tumor cells are larger and ...

Immune cells play an active and intimate role in directing the growth of human lung tissue during development, researchers find, revolutionizing our understanding of early lung development and the ...

Researchers of the University of Barcelona and the August Pi y Sunyer Biomedical Research Institute (IDIBAPS) have shown that the IGFBP3 protein plays a relevant role in human lung development. The ...

The lung is a highly specialised organ that develops through a complex series of branching events and cellular differentiation processes. From the initial budding of the foregut, the formation of ...

These CT scans of airways (red) and lungs (black) show the spectrum of dysanapsis, with smaller airways in proportion to lung size (left) compared with normal size airways (middle), and larger than ...

An international research group has combined advanced single-cell technologies with studies in lung organoids to map the development of early human lung immune cells over time. Their results, which ...

Findings from a new study on lung development should empower the search for better treatments for lung diseases. Researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania have ...

Scientists have implicated a type of immune cell in the development of chronic lung disease that sometimes is triggered following a respiratory viral infection. The evidence suggests that activation ...
