Characteristics and potential role of M2 macrophages in COPD.

International journal of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease - 1 Jan 2017

He Shengyang, Xie Lihua, Lu Junjuan, Sun Shenghua

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: COPD is a multi-pathogenesis disease mainly caused by smoking. A further understanding of the mechanism of smoking-related COPD might contribute to preventions and treatments of this disease in the early stages. This study was designed to identify the characteristics of M2 macrophages in COPD for a better understanding about their potential role. MATERIALS AND METHODS: COPD models were built in the...
