The effects of mechanical forces on lung functions

H R Wirtz et al. Respir Physiol. 2000 Jan.

Abstract

The lung is a dynamic organ that is subjected to mechanical forces throughout development and adult life. This review article addresses the types of mechanical forces in the lung and their effects on development and normal lung functions. The effects of mechanical forces on the various different cell types of the lung are discussed, as are the mechanisms underlying mechanotransduction.
