Project description:CX3CR1pos monocytes are mobilized upon infection and undergo monocyte-to-macrophage transition in inflamed tissues. Using scRNA-seq of CD11c+ cells from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) infected with IAV (PR/8, H1N1 ,we demonstrate that, during severe viral pneumonia, bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) pass co-ordinated trajectories of pro-inflammatory-to-tissue-healing phenotypes, before differentiating into tissue-resident alveolar macrophages, that retain a long-term tissue-protective phenotype.
Project description:This study aimed to delineate molecular phenotypes of the lung microenvironment across idiopathic interestitial pneumonias, namely interstitial pneumonia with autoimmune features (IPAF)and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) through proteomic analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF).
Project description:In dogs, a species for which markers of cell populations are often limiting, we sought to evaluate in an unbiased way the heterogeneity of cell subpopulations in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of healthy dogs, by single-cell RNA-sequencing.
Project description:The study is intended to find if correlation exists between the abundance of bacterial gene for pyruvate ferredoxin oxidoreductase (PFOR) and short-chain fatty acids concentration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from patients with HIV-Associated Bacterial Pneumonia.
