WA Epithelial Research Program for Childhood Respiratory Diseases

Once thought to be a simple barrier to the external environment, epithelial cells are involved in many repair and inflammatory processes that occur in childhood airway diseases.

Research

Vulnerable from the first breath - epithelial dysfunction and respiratory outcomes in children

We have been studying the importance of the epithelial cells lining the airways in the nose and lungs.

Research

Epithelial Drivers of Neutrophil Plasticity in Early Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease

Hallmarks of cystic fibrosis (CF) airway disease include bronchiectasis, airway inflammation by infiltrating polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) and recurring infection.

Research

Defective cell migration as a mechanism of dysregulated asthmatic airway repair

The findings from this study show that in children with asthma this protective barrier is different from children without asthma.
