Tissue-resident alveolar macrophages reduce O <sub>3</sub> -induced inflammation via MerTK mediated efferocytosis
2023-11-06
Abstract excerpt
Lung inflammation, caused by acute exposure to ozone (O 3 ) – one of the six criteria air pollutants – is a significant source of morbidity in susceptible individuals. Alveolar macrophages (AMØs) are the most abundant immune cells in the normal lung and their number increases following O 3 exposure. However, the role of AMØs in promoting or limiting O 3 -induced lung inflammation has not been clearly defined. H...
