Adult non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis is characterised by airway luminal Th17 pathway activation.

Adult non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis is characterised by airway luminal Th17 pathway activation.

Non-cystic fibrosis (CF) bronchiectasis is characterised by chronic airway infection and neutrophilic inflammation, which we hypothesised would be associated with Th17 pathway activation.Th17 pathway cytokines were quantified in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and gene expression of IL-17A, IL-...
