PMID: 19923454
Peribronchial lymphoid follicles have recently been identified as one of the hallmark features of (severe) chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, little is known about the relative contribution of peribronchial...

PMID: 19635922
Cigarette smoking is associated with the development of allergic asthma. In mice, exposure to cigarette smoke sensitizes the airways toward coinhaled OVA, leading to OVA-specific allergic inflammation. Pulmonary dendritic cells...

. 2006 Aug;
141(4):354-68.
PMID: 16940747
Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with an abnormal inflammatory response of the lungs to noxious particles or gases. We investigated whether Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is implicated...

. 2005 May;
5(3):257-63.
PMID: 15907912
Asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are both highly prevalent, chronic inflammatory lung diseases that lead to significant morbidity and mortality. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are extracellular matrix degrading enzymes...

PMID: 15576669
Dendritic cells (DC) are specialized antigen-presenting cells, linking innate and adaptive immune responses, and thus play an important role in immunologically mediated diseases, including pulmonary diseases such as asthma and...

Vermaelen K, Cataldo D, Tournoy K, Maes T, Dhulst A, Louis R, et al.
J Immunol
. 2003 Jul;
171(2):1016-22.
PMID: 12847275
Dendritic cells (DCs) appear to be strategically implicated in allergic diseases, including asthma. Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 mediates transmigration of inflammatory leukocytes across basement membranes. This study investigated the role of...
