23 Dec 2020
Abstract excerpt
Significance This report reveals a mechanism by which cigarette smoke (CS) could exacerbate local inflammatory disease. CS is a key environmental pollutant affecting millions of people globally and continues to be of considerable interest to the biomedical communities. We found that CS activates the AhR on Th17 cells, leading to the up-regulation of miR-132 , which is then packaged into extracellular vesicles...
