Histologic and biochemical alterations predict pulmonary mechanical dysfunction in aging mice with chronic lung inflammation

Both aging and chronic inflammation produce complex structural and biochemical alterations to the lung known to impact work of breathing. Mice deficient in surfactant protein D (Sftpd) develop progressive age-related lung pathology characterized by tissue destruction/remodeling, accumulation of foam...
