Abstract
Collectively, IR reduces Sfrp5 expression of lung tissue and activates the Wnt5a/JNK1 pathway, promoting macrophage activation and contributing to the lung's inflammatory response. In contrast, Sfrp5 suppresses the inflammatory response by inhibiting the Wnt5a/JNKl pathway, which could be a target of treatment of COPD.
