Receptor-mediated cAMP production in adult and infant ferret tracheal epithelium.

abstract：:Premature newborns are highly susceptible to severe bacterial infections. This is partially due to their immature innate immune system, characterized by decreased neutrophil and monocyte activity as well as by reduced concentrations of complement factors. However, additional mechanisms might be important for innate im...
