2022-05-31
Abstract excerpt
Small airway fibrosis is a common pathology of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and contributes to airflow obstruction. However, the underlying fibrogenic mechanism is poorly understood. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) has been proposed as a driver of fibrosis. EMT occurs in the airways of COPD patients and smokers, but it remains elusive whether EMT may contribute to airway fibrosis. We previo...
