Extracellular Release of Mitochondrial DNA: Triggered by Cigarette Smoke and Detected in COPD
Cigarette smoke (CS) is the most common risk factor for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The present study aimed to elucidate whether mtDNA is released upon CS exposure and is detected in the plasma of former smokers affected by COPD as a possible consequence of airway damage. We measur...
