CCR7 and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: To investigate DC priming, we measured lung DC expression of CCR2, CCR7, and CX3CR1 and cocultured peripheral blood NKs with autologous lung DCs, either matured using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) (nonobstructed smokers) or separated into conventional dendritic cell type-1 (cDC1) versus cDC type-2 (cDC2) (COPD).
