Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
• Local inflammation before and after cigarette smoking assessed by exhaled breath condensate, microprobe sampling and bronchial biopsies. • Systemic inflammation before and after cigarette smoking assessed by the expression of established and newly developed markers on innate immune cells associated with pre-activation. • Extensive clinical characterisation including life style factors, lung function, CT scanning of the lung. • Corticosteroid responsiveness of epithelial cells in vitro. • Distribution of candidate genes (SNPs) for COPD between the 5 different groups and associations with the inflammatory responses on acute smoking.
