Silica-induced pulmonary fibrosis is thought to involve fibroblast stimulation by a product of alveolar macrophages (AM) but various cell culture systems have given conflicting results. Macrophage-fibroblast interactions are now studied using an homologous system in which supernatants of rat AM afte

Because they are found in the leaves and stems of these plants, they can account for a significant porportion of the water-soluble components of the dust generated during the processing of such plants. The ability of the condensed tannins
Several new synthetic substrates fulfilling the specificity requirements of cathepsin D were synthesized. One of these D-Phe-Ser(O-CH2-C6H5)-Phe-Phe-Ala-Ala-pAB(pAB = p-aminobenzoate) proved to be highly sensitive and convenient for measuring activity. Enzyme determination was carried out in a two-s
