What Are Rare Lung Diseases?
-
Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF)
IPF is a chronic, progressive, fibrotic interstitial lung disease characterized by scarring of the lungs, resulting in dyspnea, dry cough, and decreased exercise tolerance.
-
Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM)
A rare lung disease that primarily affects the female reproductive system and manifests as cysts in the lungs and pleural effusions that may lead to respiratory failure.
-
Cystic Fibrosis (CF)
A disease that causes thick mucus to build up in the lungs, digestive tract, and other parts of the body.
-
Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH)
A type of high blood pressure that affects the lungs and the arteries on the right side of the heart.
-
Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis (HP)
An allergic disease that causes inflammation of the small air sacs (alveoli) in the lungs.
-
Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis (PAP)
A rare lung disease caused by a buildup of protein, fat, and other substances in the air sacs (alveoli) of the lungs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Our Preclinical Research Services
-
How to order specific services from Protheragen?
-
What models are used to study rare lung diseases?
Models commonly used in the study of rare lung diseases include mouse models, rat models, non-human primate models, cell culture models, 3D engineered lung cell models, genetically engineered models, humanized models, and innovative models such as “lobe lung” models. Each of these models has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the choice depends on the objectives of the study and the characteristics of the disease.
-
How are rare lung diseases diagnosed?
Diagnosis of rare lung diseases requires a combination of methods and tools, including clinical presentation, imaging, laboratory testing, pathologic analysis, and multidisciplinary collaboration.
-
How to ensure ethical behavior in preclinical research?
Protheragen adheres to strict ethical guidelines and regulatory standards in all of our research. Our commitment includes obtaining necessary approvals and ensuring humane treatment of animal models.
-
