Sputum phagocytes from healthy individuals are functional and activated: a flow cytometric comparison with cells in bronchoalveolar lavage and peripheral blood.

Clinical immunology (Orlando, Fla.) - 1 Oct 2000

Alexis N, Soukup J, Ghio A, Becker S

Abstract excerpt

Cells in the bronchial airways of healthy individuals are continuously exposed to inhaled particulates in the size range 2-5 microm, which preferentially deposit in the bronchial rather than the alveolar lung. Induced sputum obtains cells primarily from the surfaces of bronchial airways. Using fl...
