Summary: | Corresponding author's email: cklimen1@jhmi.edu Rationale: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), the 3 leading cause of death in the US, is primarily due to cigarette smoke (CS) exposure. Conclusions: Combining the benefits of two model systems, human lung epithelium and Dictyostelium, provides a powerful approach for discovering new COPD biology while potentiating novel strategies for developing innovative COPD therapies. |
