Glucocorticoid receptor expression in human bronchial epithelial cells: effects of smoking and COPD

Glucocorticoid receptor expression in human bronchial epithelial cells: effects of smoking and COPD

Previously, we found that inflammatory mediators modulated the number and binding affinity of glucocorticoid receptors (GR) in human bronchial epithelial cell lines . In this study we investigated whether smoking and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), both characterized by airway inflamma...
