Cytochrome c levels link mitochondrial function to plant growth and stress responses through changes in SnRK1 pathway activity.

Energy is required for growth as well as for multiple cellular processes. During evolution, plants developed regulatory mechanisms to adapt energy consumption to metabolic reserves and cellular needs. Reduced growth is often observed under stress, leading to a growth-stress trade-off that governs plant performance under different conditions.

Airway epithelium in lung transplantation: a potential actor for post-transplant complications?

Lung transplantation, a critical intervention for end-stage lung diseases, is frequently challenged by post-transplant complications. Indeed, primary graft dysfunction, anastomotic complications, infections and acute and chronic rejections pose significant hurdles in lung transplantation. While evidence regarding the role of airway epithelium after lung transplantation is still emerging, its importance is becoming increasingly recognised.

Post viral bronchiolitis obliterans in children: A rare and potentially devastating disease.

Post infectious bronchiolitis obliterans (PIBO) is a rare but severe disease in children. Several respiratory pathogens are incriminated but adenovirus is still the most represented. Risk factors are well described: the male gender, hypoxemia at diagnosis and required mechanical ventilation.

Cell Culture Differentiation and Proliferation Conditions Influence the Regeneration of the Human Airway Epithelium.

The human airway mucociliary epithelium can be recapitulated using primary cells cultured in an air-liquid interface (ALI), a reliable surrogate to perform pathophysiological studies. As tremendous variations exist among media used for ALI-cultured human airway epithelial cells, the aim of our study was to evaluate the impact of several media (BEGM, PneumaCult, Half & Half, and Clancy) on cell type distribution using single-cell RNA sequencing and imaging. Our work revealed the impact of these media on cell composition, gene expression profile, cell signaling, and epithelial morphology.
