immune system
• by 8-12 weeks of age, mice exhibit areas of peribronchial and perivascular inflammation, consisting predominantly of B220+ B cells
• inflammation is most notable in the subepithelial region of airway branch points
• CD3e+ T cells are found interspersed among the B cells at foci of inflammation
