Ventilation-Like Mechanical Strain Modulates the Inflammatory Response of BEAS2B Epithelial Cells

Protective mechanical ventilation is aimed at preventing ventilator-induced lung injury while ensuring sufficient gas exchange. A new approach focuses on the temporal profile of the mechanical ventilation. We hypothesized that the temporal mechanical strain profile modulates inflammatory signalling....
