Separating in vivo mechanical stimuli for postpneumonectomy compensation: imaging and ultrastructural assessment

Following right pneumonectomy (PNX), the remaining lung expands and its perfusion more than doubles. Tissue and microvascular mechanical stresses are putative stimuli for compensatory lung growth and remodeling, but their relative contribution remains uncertain. To temporally separate expansion- and...
