different between lung vs autocrine

From Middle English lunge, longe, from Old English lungen, from Proto-Germanic *lunganj?, an enlargement of *lungô (“the light organ, lung”), from Proto-Indo-European *leng??- (“not heavy, agile, nimble”); compare *h?leng??-, whence ultimately also light. Cognate with West Frisian long, Dutch long, German Lunge, Danish lunge, Norwegian lunge, Swedish lunga, Icelandic lunga, and also Russian ?????? (ljóxkoje) (lung), Ancient Greek ???????
