Popis: The objective of the research was to evaluate the influence of basic treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with tiotropium bromide on the processes of morphological rearrangement and local barrier defence mechanisms in the bronchial mucosa. Stage II chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is associated with the damage to the bronchi with proliferation of the connective tissue in its proper plate, clear identification of the basal membrane alteration, the presence of fibroblasts, the activation of fibroblasts/myofibroblasts and mucous glands, which is accompanied by the significant increase of type ІV collagen levels by 6.19 times (p
