Title: Anti-microbial immunity is impaired in COPD patients with frequent exacerbations
  • Document date: 2019_5_9
  • ID: 72jzqm86_55
    Snippet: In conclusion, we show that patients with COPD and a history of frequent exacerbations have reduced anti-viral and anti-bacterial immunity associated with increased secondary bacterial infection. These immune defects may underlie the increased propensity to exacerbations observed in this sub-group and provides evidence to support therapeutic approaches that boost innate immunity in COPD author/funder.
