Bronchiolitis Obliterans - Genetics
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Bronchiolitis Obliterans'Inflammation of the BRONCHIOLES leading to an obstructive lung disease. Bronchioles are characterized by fibrous granulation tissue with bronchial exudates in the lumens. Clinical features include a nonproductive cough and DYSPNEA. Common names: Bronchiolitis Obliterans; Constrictive Bronchiolitis; Bronchiolitides, Constrictive; Bronchiolitis, Constrictive; Constrictive Bronchiolitides; Bronchiolitis, Exudative; Bronchiolitides, Exudative; Exudative Bronchiolitides; Exudative Bronchiolitis; Bronchiolitis, Proliferative |

BACKGROUND: Long-term success in lung transplantation is limited by obliterative bronchiolitis (OB), yet the mechanism for this disease is not well understood. Chemokine SDF-1 and its receptor, CXCR4, have been reported to be involved in several ... Read more...
30 Dec 2007 Bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is a serious complication after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. We hypothesized that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the NOD2/CARD15 gene (=NOD2/CARD15 variants) contribute to changes in host defense and ... Read more...

13 Jul 2007 OBJECTIVE: To investigate the mechanism underlying myofibroblast differentiation induced by transforming growth factor (TGF) beta1 in obliterative bronchiolitis following lung transplantation. METHODS: Heterotopic tracheal transplantation was ... Read more...
