Quantification and role of innate lymphoid cell subsets in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Clinical & Translational Immunology, 2021
Objectives Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) secrete cytokines, such as IFN‐γ, IL‐13 and IL‐17, which are linked to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Here, we investigated the role of pulmonary ILCs in COPD pathogenesis.
