Asthma remains a complex and multifactorial disease, with airway hyperresponsiveness to methacholine being a hallmark feature. A recent study by Rojas-Ruiz et al (2025) utilizes SCIREQ’s innovative physioLens (ex vivo) and flexiVent (in vivo) platforms to shed light on the interplay between lung tissue compliance and methacholine response, offering new insights into the mechanisms ...
Obtaining viable single cells from lung tissue is essential for understanding respiratory function and disease mechanisms. Despite its importance, isolating these cells remains challenging. Bertin Technologies’ Precellys Multi Tissue Dissociation kit, in conjunction with the Precellys Evolution Touch (or Precellys Evolution), offers an effective solution for dissociating lung tissues into ...
The incidence of landscape fires has been rising globally, leading to increased exposure to landscape fire smoke (LFS) among millions of people. The inhalation of particulate matter (PM) from LFS is associated with adverse respiratory and cardiovascular outcomes. However, the mechanisms by which LFS impacts these functions remain inadequately understood. This blog focuses on a new ...

In a recent article, Prof Daniel Salerno, Prof Victor Kim and colleagues used Functional Respiratory Imaging to better understand the crucial link between DLCO and Pulmonary Vascular Abnormalities in COVID19. COVID-19 is a respiratory viral illness causing pneumonia and systemic disease. Abnormalities in pulmonary function tests infection have been described. The determinants of these ...

In a recent published study Functional Respiratory Imaging (FRI) was used to assess Mandibular advancement devices (MAD) mechanisms. MAD are a non-invasive treatment option for patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and act by increasing the upper airway volume. However, the exact therapeutic mechanism of action remains unclear. In this study 100 OSA patients were prospectively included ...

In a recent study, 10 patients with unstable, severe asthma were treated with Bronchial Thermoplasty (BT) of the left lung, while the right lung was used as an internal control. Changes in lung structure and function were assessed with Functional Respiratory Imaging (FRI). Significant differences between the treatment and control lungs were observed for airway volume (27% and 17% at TLC and FRC, ...
