Jimyung Park, Yeon Joo Lee, Jinwoo Lee, Sung Soo Park, Young-Jae Cho, Sang-Min Lee, Young Whan Kim, Sung Koo Han, Chul-Gyu Yoo
Korean J Intern Med. 2018;33(3):532-540. Published online November 1, 2017
Background/Aims: Diffuse alveolar damage (DAD) is the histopathologic hallmark of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, there are several non-DAD conditions mimicking ARDS. The purpose of this study was to investigate the histopathologic heterogeneity of ARDS revealed by surgical lung..

Selectively Decreased Expression of Peroxiredoxins Induced by Silica in Pulmonary Epithelial Cells
Hye Lim Lee, Young Sun Kim, Joo Hun Park, Wou Young Chung, Kyu Sung Lee, Yoon Jung Oh, Seung Soo Sheen, Kwang Joo Park, Sung Chul Hwang
Korean J Intern Med. 2009;24(3):220-226. Published online August 26, 2009
Background/AimsPeroxiredoxin (Prx) belongs to a ubiquitous family of antioxidant enzymes that regulates many cellular processes through intracellular oxidative signal transduction pathways. Silica-induced lung damage involves reactive oxygen species (ROS) that trigger subseque..
