Epigenetic reprogramming of airway macrophages promotes polarization and inflammation in muco-obstructive lung disease

Muco-obstructive lung diseases are characterised by airway macrophage (AM) populations which may have epigenetic changes. Here using a mouse model the authors show epigenetic alteration of AMs with changes in LPS response, phagocytosis and efferocytosis similar to culture with mucus in vitro.
