Combining cigarette smoke exposure with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration can induce pathological manifestations of emphysema, fibrosis, and increased mucus in mouse lungs, while significant increasing IL-1β both in the lung tissue and Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). In addition, the COPD model reduces respiratory function and capacity in mice.
