Aging increases senescence, calcium signaling, and extracellular matrix deposition in human airway smooth muscle.
Lung function declines as people age and their lungs become stiffer. With an increasing elderly population, understanding mechanisms that contribute to these structural and functional changes in the aging lung is important. Part of the aging process is characterized by thicker, more fibrotic airways...
