The cellular fine structure of the human lung is described in respect of maintaining a thin barrier between air and blood in the interest of gas exchange. The mechanisms that prevent formation of oedema are discussed. The mechanical design of lung parenchyma and the physiological conditions that allow a very large alveolar surface to be maintained are presented and their importance of a surfactant lining layer for stabilizing this surface is demonstrated.
本文描述了人类肺部的细胞精细结构,其目的是在气体交换过程中,在空气和血液之间维持一个薄屏障。文中讨论了防止水肿形成的机制。介绍了肺实质的机械设计以及维持非常大的肺泡表面积所需的生理条件,并阐述了表面活性物质衬里层对稳定该表面的重要性。
