9 wrz 2019 · Here we review the role of the lung and gut microbiotas in respiratory health and disease and highlight the main pathways of communication that underlie the gut–lung axis.
1 gru 2012 · The development of quantitative analysis of food webs provides an opportunity to reconcile ecological processes and biodiversity patterns into a single analytical framework. Importantly this is increasingly coupled with the ability to model the effects of food-web structure on ecosystem functions.
5 paź 2016 · Using a dynamic food-web model with body-mass constraints, we simulate ecosystem functions of 20,000 communities of varying animal diversity.
31 paź 2023 · The respiratory system has protective mechanisms to avoid damage. In the nasal cavity, hairs and mucus trap small particles, viruses, bacteria, dust, and dirt to prevent entry. If particulates make it beyond the nose or enter via the mouth, the bronchi and bronchioles contain several protective devices.
15 mar 2024 · Different models of repair and regeneration will be discussed to help interpret human and animal data and spur the investigation of models and assays for future drug development.
The respiratory system works hand-in-hand with the nervous and cardiovascular systems to maintain homeostasis in blood gases and pH. It is the level of carbon dioxide rather than the level of oxygen that is most closely monitored to maintain blood gas and pH homeostasis.
26 lip 2022 · One of the most pivotal features to evolve was the lungs, which gave vertebrates the ability to breathe above water. Most land-living vertebrates, including humans, have two lungs which sit on either side of their chest.
