RAGE and AXL expression following secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure in mice.

Conclusions: Our results suggest that there is a possible correlation between RAGE and AXL during SHS exposure. Additional research is critically needed that dissects the molecular interplay between these two important signaling cascades. At this point, the current studies provide insight into tobacco-mediated effects in the lung and clarify possible avenues for alleviating complications that could arise during SHS exposure such as those observed during COPD exacerbations.
