What's new in lung physiology? Pulmonary vessel regulation/non-respiratory metabolic lung functions

Whereas in the last few decades respiratory functions of the lung occupied a central role in research activity, current interests are concentrating more and more on non-respiratory functions. The present small overview concerns itself with vasoregulation and metabolic operations of the lung. A serie...
