Challenges and complexities in treating ammonia-induced lung injuries: ammonia disrupts cellular membranes and induces severe damage
While standard treatment with corticosteroids offered limited protection in NH<sub>3</sub>-exposed mice, the study's complementary <i>in vitro</i> investigations on new medical counter measures highlighted the complexity and severity of NH<sub>3</sub>-induced lung injury. Together, the <i>in vivo</i> and <i>in vitro</i> findings emphasize the urgent need for effective medical countermeasures.
