Dinámica y patología del barrido mucociliar como mecanismo defensivo del pulmón y alternativas farmacológicas de tratamiento

The first line of defense to maintain the sterility of the intrapulmonary airways is the mucociliary clearance system. This rapidly responding, non-specific, immune defensive system is challenged by approximately 12,000 liters of air filtered by the lungs each day, containing millions of particles l...
