In vivo cigarette smoke exposure decreases CCL20, SLPI, and BD-1 secretion by human primary nasal epithelial cells.
AbstractSmokers and individuals exposed to second hand cigarette smoke (SHCS) have a higher risk of developing chronic sinus and bronchial infections. This suggests that cigarette smoke (CS) has adverse effects on immune defenses against pathogens. Epithelial cells are important in airway innate im...
