Monocyte clusters suggestive of a chronic inflammatory phenotype are associated with reduced endothelial function in Veterans with respiratory symptoms.

Abstract excerpt

Exposure to airborne hazards during deployment is associated with persistent respiratory symptoms among military veterans even years after deployment. Circulating monocytes, key components of the innate immune response, are implicated in inflammatory processes that may be sustained long after such exposures and contribute to related health issues. This cross-sectional study, conducted years after deployment,...
