Proteomics of exhaled breath condensate in stable COPD and non-COPD controls using tandem mass tags (TMTs) quantitative mass spectrometry: A pilot study.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a type of obstructive lung disease characterized by long-term breathing problems and poor airflow. Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) is now a safe and clinically significant measurement which has a huge potential to measure biomarkers in COPD. Previous studies profiled the pooled EBC samples from COPD or control participants due to technological limitations.

The Natural Course of Atopic Dermatitis and the Association with Asthma.

In this paper, we aimed to explore the potential mechanism underlying atopic dermatitis (AD) and its association with asthma. The BALB/c mice were randomly assigned to three groups, including the vehicle control (VD) group, the AD group, and the treatment (TR) group. The AD mice model was successfully constructed in the AD and TR group.
