COPD Pathogenesis
COPD pathogenesis involves chronic inflammation and structural changes in the lungs due to prolonged exposure to irritants, primarily tobacco smoke. This inflammation leads to the progressive destruction of lung tissue, including the loss of alveolar structures and airway remodeling. These changes result in persistent airflow limitation, decreased lung function, and symptoms such as chronic cough and breathlessness, ultimately impairing respiratory health.
