These findings may in part explain the increased incidence of respiratory symptoms in infants and children exposedtoCS.

We demonstrate that a tumor microenvironment exposedtoCS is sufficient to modulate metabolism and cancer aggressiveness in HNSCC.
4
THP-1 human macrophages and primary human alveolar macrophages exposedtoCS extract, nicotine, or acrolein showed an increased burden of intracellular M. tuberculosis.
5
Furthermore, the presence of fibroblast-specific protein-positive cells increased in the lungs of influenza-infected mice that were exposedtoCS compared with the infection-alone group.
6
We used a murine model in which animals were exposedtoCS or room air and subsequently infected with H1N1 influenza virus.
