The number of CD4+CD25+FOXP3 Tregs in the bronchial biopsies [51] or lungs [52] of patients with stable COPD is not significantly different compared with healthy controls but is decreased in the small airways of COPD patients, and this negatively correlates with the degree of airflow ...
Spirometry is the main test for COPD. It measures how much air you can move in and out of your lungs, and how quickly you do it. You take a deep breath and blow as hard as you can into a tube. You might repeat the test after inhaling a puff of a bronchodilator medicine, which ...

Full size image We identified two clusters of AT2 cells. These two AT2 clusters had similar transcriptional profiles to the two AT2 clusters reported by Travaglini et al. in their scRNAseq analysis of normal human lungs, and therefore we used similar terms to annotate these clusters18. Both AT2...
FOT application provides detailed information about the lungs’ resistive properties, reflecting changes in lung structure, heterogeneity and elastance44. FOT is used to estimate the respiratory system impedance (Zrs), which includes the respiratory system resistance (Rrs) and respiratory system reactance ...
