Respiratory Tract Secretions (RTS)

Target: RTS
Molecular classification: Mixture, Mucus, Electrolytes, Proteins

Overview

Respiratory tract secretions are a complex mixture of fluids and substances produced by cells lining the respiratory tract. They play a vital role in protecting the airways by trapping inhaled particles and pathogens, facilitating their removal through mucociliary clearance. Dysregulation of secretion production or impaired clearance can lead to various respiratory diseases.
