Innate immune responses are increased in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

<h4>Background</h4>Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterised by irreversible airflow obstruction, neutrophilic airway inflammation and chronic bacterial colonisation, however the role of the innate immune response in the pathogenesis of COPD remains unclear.<h4>...
