By routine applied quantitative BAL methods are particularly helpful for the diagnosis of pulmonary sarcoidosis. Here the morphology of the alveolar cells does not play a role. However, morphological and especially electron microscopic investigations might contribute to the clarification of the aetiology of this disease. In a prospective study we investigated the bronchoalveolar lavages (BALs) from...
In increasing numbers of pulmonary diseases an association with a loss of intracellular thiols, mainly glutathione, is postulated. Therefore, the quantitative measurement of thiols within different viable cells is a possible metabolic parameter for cellular function and defense capacity of all pulmonary immune cells including alveolar macrophages (AM), that are highly compromised by oxidative stress...
