13 Jan 2012
Abstract excerpt
RATIONALE: Gene expression profiling of airway epithelial and inflammatory cells can be used to identify genes involved in environmental asthma. METHODS: Airway epithelia and inflammatory cells were obtained via bronchial brush and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) from 39 subjects comprising three phenotypic groups (nonatopic nonasthmatic, atopic nonasthmatic, and atopic asthmatic) 4 hours after instillation of LPS,...
