Relationship of macrophage function and phenotype in COPD

2018-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with elevated inflammatory signals, protease activity and reduced clearance of pathogens. Macrophages are key in driving inflammatory signals that are subsequently followed by resolution of inflammation and return to steady state. In pathologies such as COPD, macrophages may drive development and progression of disease by loss of regulation of inflammatory...
