CCR2 and CXCR3 agonistic chemokines are differently expressed and regulated in human alveolar epithelial cells type II.

abstract：BACKGROUND:A disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-15 (ADAM15) is expressed by activated leukocytes, and fibroblasts in vitro. Whether ADAM15 expression is increased in the lungs of COPD patients is not known. METHODS:ADAM15 gene expression and/or protein levels were measured in whole lung and bronchoalveolar lavag...
