Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis and the Immune System

Trial Objective

The goal of this study is to learn more about how some white blood cells cause the inflammation associated with Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis, a lung disorder caused by inhaled dust, fungus, molds or chemicals. By better understanding this lung disorder at a cellular level, researchers can identify new treatments and medications.
