Human Cellular Models for the Investigation of Lung Inflammation and Mucus Production in Cystic Fibrosis

Chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, mucus plugging, airway remodeling, and respiratory infections are the hallmarks of the cystic fibrosis (CF) lung disease. The airway epithelium is central in the innate immune responses to pathogens colonizing the airways, since it is involved in mucociliary c...
