Abstract:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an incompletely reversible chronic airway disease that can be prevented and cured.There is a tendency toward increasing the morbidity and mortality for COPD.Establishment of an animal model for COPD is an important step to explore the pathogenesis of this disease.Presently,a well-recognized COPD animal model is not available.The key points for establishing the COPD animal models,such as selection of animal species,parameters for model evaluation,are constantly updated.
