CC16 in Childhood and Resilience to Early Airflow Limitation in Adult Life project proposes that Club cell secretory protein (CC16), a pneumoprotein with critical anti-inflammatory properties, plays a key role in protecting from the risk of early airflow limitation and other pre-COPD phenotypes linked to impaired lung function growth in childhood.

This project aims to determine:

  • The early determinants of serum CC16
  • Whether early deficits in serum CC16 predict persistence of childhood asthma
  • Whether airways of individuals with low CC16 and persistent asthma have increased susceptibility to respiratory pathogens.
