Airway surface liquid volume expansion induces rapid changes in amiloride-sensitive Na⁺transport across upper airway epithelium-Implications concerning the resolution of... by Fouad Azizi (11835843)

“…Here, we have investigated the mechanism by which ASLV expansion alters active epithelial Na+ transport, and we have characterized the time course of the change. We used primary cultures of tracheal airway epithelium maintained under air interface (basal ASLV, depth is 7 ± 0.5 μm). …”

UVB damage onset and progression 24 h post exposure in human-derived skin cells by Khalil, Christian

“…We also established upregulation and downregulation of various apoptotic proteins at various time points post exposure. The presented data clearly indicated the need for a comprehensive assessment of UVB damages 4 and 24 h post exposure due to the different assay sensitivities in addition to various signaling mechanisms activated at different time points post exposure.…”
