Dysregulated repair in asthmatic paediatric airway epithelial cells: The role of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1

Dysregulated repair in asthmatic paediatric airway epithelial cells: The role of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1

Background: Asthma is associated with structural changes to airways such as extracellular matrix deposition and epithelial damage. Evidence suggests that asthmatic airway epithelial repair is abnormal and that elevated plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 levels observed in asthma may be involved in th...
