Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Airway mucosa is constantly exposed to various airborne microbes, and epithelial host defense requires a robust innate immunity. Recently, it has been suggested that NADPH oxidase (NOX) isozymes serve functional roles in toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated innate immune responses. However, the molecular mechanism between TLR and NOX-mediated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in human airway mucosa has...
