Innate epithelial and functional differences in airway epithelium of children with acute wheeze

Early childhood wheeze is a major risk factor for asthma. However, not all children who wheeze will develop the disease. The airway epithelium has been shown to be involved in asthma pathogenesis. Despite this, the airway epithelium of children with acute wheeze remains poorly characterized.

The influence of moving walls on respiratory aerosol deposition modelling

This work initially examines particle deposition in a Weibull-type geometry, comparing traditional computational fluid dynamics approaches with a novel...

Execution of Licence Agreement with The Kids Research Institute Australia and Erasmus University Medical Centre

Resonance Health Ltd is pleased to announce that it has entered into a licence agreement with The Kids Research Institute Australia and the Erasmus University Medical Centre.

Airway Epithelial Research

The Airway Epithelial Research Team is investigating the role of the epithelium in the development of airway diseases including asthma, cystic fibrosis and lung transplant rejection.

Foetal growth restriction in mice modifies postnatal airway responsiveness in an age and sex-dependent manner

Our data demonstrate changes in airway responsiveness as a result of intrauterine growth restriction that could influence susceptibility to asthma development

Respiratory Infection Rates Differ Between Geographically Distant Paediatric Cystic Fibrosis Cohorts.

Respiratory infection rates differ between geographically distant paediatric cystic fibrosis cohorts ABSTRACT Respiratory infections are a major

Difficult but doable: Health professional perspectives of assessing clinical deterioration in children with dark-coloured skin

Observable signs of clinical deterioration may present differently in children with dark-coloured skin, leading to potential missed or delayed recognition. It is unknown how health professionals approach assessment in children with dark-coloured skin. 

Airway surface liquid pH is not acidic in children with cystic fibrosis

Modulation of ASL pH has been proposed as a therapy for CF. However, evidence that ASL pH is reduced in CF is limited and conflicting.

Transplacental immune modulation with a bacterial-derived agent protects against allergic airway inflammation

These data provide proof of concept supporting the rationale for developing transplacental immune reprogramming approaches for primary disease prevention
