Retinoic acid treatment abrogates elastase-induced pulmonary emphysema in rats by Massaro, Gloria De Carlo, Massaro, Donald

“…Pulmonary emphysema is a common disease in which destruction of the lung's gas-exchange structures (alveoli) leads to inadequate oxygenation, disability and…”

Estrogen regulates pulmonary alveolar formation, loss, and regeneration in mice by Massaro, Donald, Massaro, Gloria Decarlo

“…Lung tissue elastic recoil and the dimension and number of pulmonary gas-exchange units (alveoli) are major determinants of gas-exchange function. Loss of…”

Estrogen receptor regulation of pulmonary alveolar dimensions: alveolar sexual dimorphism in mice by Massaro, Donald, Massaro, Gloria Decarlo

“…Female rats and mice have smaller and, per body mass (BM), more alveoli and alveolar surface area (Sa) than males of their respective species. This sexual…”

Noninvasive delivery of small inhibitory RNA and other reagents to pulmonary alveoli in mice by Massaro, Donald, Massaro, Gloria Decarlo, Clerch, Linda Biadasz

“…A technically easy, noninvasive means of delivering molecules to alveoli, which act selectively or specifically in the lung, would be experimentally and…”

Retinoic acid receptor-alpha regulates pulmonary alveolus formation in mice after, but not during, perinatal period by Massaro, Gloria DeCarlo, Massaro, Donald, Chambon, Pierre

“…The formation of pulmonary alveoli in mice and rats by subdivision of alveolar saccules that constitute the newborn's gas-exchange region ends by approximately…”

Rapid onset of gene expression in lung, supportive of formation of alveolar septa, induced by refeeding mice after calorie restriction by Massaro, Donald, Alexander, Emma, Reiland, Kristin, Hoffman, Eric P, Massaro, Gloria DeCarlo, Clerch, Linda Biadasz

“…Alveolar regenerative gene expression is unidentified partly because its onset, after a regenerative stimulus, is unknown. Toward addressing this void, we used…”

Lung retinol storing cells synthesize and secrete retinoic acid, an inducer of alveolus formation by Dirami, Ghenima, Massaro, Gloria DeCarlo, Clerch, Linda Biadasz, Ryan, Una S, Reczek, Peter R, Massaro, Donald

“…Retinoids play a key role in the formation of pulmonary alveoli. Lipid interstitial cells (LICs) of the alveolar wall store retinol and are concentrated at…”

Expression of lung uncoupling protein-2 mRNA is modulated developmentally and by caloric intake by Xiao, Hong, Massaro, Donald, Massaro, Gloria DeCarlo, Clerch, Linda Biadasz

“…Lung expresses a high concentration of uncoupling protein-2 (UCP-2) mRNA, but neither its pulmonary regulation nor function is known. We measured lung UCP-2…”

Toward therapeutic pulmonary alveolar regeneration in humans by Massaro, Donald, Massaro, Gloria Decarlo

“…In humans, age results in loss of pulmonary alveoli; menopause accelerates loss of diffusing capacity, an index of alveolar surface area; and disease (e.g.,…”
