Neutrophils from severe asthmatic patients induce changes in N-cadherin mRNA in human bronchial epithelial cells consistent with EMT. qPCR analysis of N-cadherin mRNA expression of NHBEs following treatment with neutrophil conditioned medium (top panels) or when co-cultured with peripheral blood neutrophils (bottom panels). Neutrophils were obtained from non-asthmatic individuals (left panels) or severe asthmatic individuals (right panels). N = 4, Mean ± SE; P < 0.05(*), P < 0.01(**), P < 0.001(***), P < 0.0001(****)
