Epithelial proliferation in the lung of the rabbit, brought about by intrapleural injection of solutions of electrolytes—a physico‐chemical interpretation of the phenomenon

Pulmonary Hyaline Membrane: Further Observations on Epithelial Origin

“…Swelling of alveolar epithelial cells as the result of noxious stimuli has previously been described by Young (1930), Ross (1939) and others. A similar process results from the action of inhaled kerosene, and it is of interest to note that the same changes in the rabbit, as observed by Young, took approximately 72 hours to occur.…”

Pulmonary hyaline membrane: late results of injury to the lung linings.

“…Based on the experimental work of others, notably Young (1928Young ( , 1930 and Ross (1939), on induced metaplasia in the alveolar lining, it was considered worth while to study the changes that were related to metaplastic transformation following chemical injury.…”
