Cigarette smoke causes caspase-independent apoptosis of bronchial epithelial cells from asthmatic donors.
<h4>Background</h4>Epidemiologic studies have demonstrated important links between air pollution and asthma. Amongst these pollutants, environmental cigarette smoke is a risk factor both for asthma pathogenesis and exacerbation. As the barrier to the inhaled environment, the bronchial ep...
