Long-term nose-only cigarette smoke exposure induces emphysema and mild skeletal muscle dysfunction in mice
SUMMARY Mouse models of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) focus on airway inflammation and lung histology, but their use has been hampered by the lack of pulmonary function data in their assessment. Systemic effects such as muscle dysfunction are also poorly modeled in emphysematous mice....
