A review of the effects of cigarette smoke on airway mucosal function
Abstract
This review examines the effects of tobacco smoke on the production and clearance of lower airway secretions, in healthy smokers and smokers with chronic bronchitis. Cigarette smoke shows to have a profound effect on airway mucociliary function, producing structural and functional changes in the mucosa.
