Airway Epithelial Nucleotide Release Contributes to Mucociliary Clearance
Mucociliary clearance (MCC) is a dominant component of pulmonary host defense. In health, the periciliary layer (PCL) is optimally hydrated, thus acting as an efficient lubricant layer over which the mucus layer moves by ciliary force. Airway surface dehydration and production of hyperconcentrated m...
