An Inflamed Human Alveolar Model for Testing the Efficiency of Anti-inflammatory Drugs in vitro
A large number of prevalent lung diseases is associated with tissue inflammation. Clinically, corticosteroid therapies are applied systemically or via inhalation for the treatment of lung inflammation, and a number of novel therapies are being developed that require preclinical testing. In alveoli,...
