Abstract excerpt
There is increasing evidence implicating activated macrophages in the pathogenesis of interstitial and other lung diseases. We investigated whether there was a unique pattern of cell surface expression that constituted a disease-specific phenotype on alveolar macrophages from patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD). Macrophage cell surface receptor expression of 19 selected markers was assessed by indirect...
