topics (OpenAlex): Neonatal Respiratory Health Research; Cystic Fibrosis Research Advances; Interstitial Lung Diseases and Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
TL;DR:
The results suggest HNE stimulation of mucin release by human airway epithelial cells involves intracellular activation of PKC, specifically the delta isoform.
