(C) Immunostaining score of respiratory epithelium was significantly increased in non-COPD patients, especially in apical compartment, when compared with COPD patients. (D) mRNA showed a similar expression pattern. The upper bar indicates the differences between non-COPD patients and COPD patients.</p> 2019-06-06 17:45:13 COPD patients show 19 control smokers PCR IFN -Ǝ response IFN -Ǝ expression 21 patients COPD patients MDA COPD patients COPD patients RIG-I lung cell types IRF
