Autoimmune Mechanisms of Cardiac Remodeling in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have high risk of cardiovascular events due to the remodeling of the heart and vessels. We investigated whether in COPD cardiac remodeling is associated with immune response to the inflammation by studying activated T-lymphocytes, CD3+, CD4+...
