These studies generated data suggesting that 1) chronic tobacco smoke exposure blunts antiviral pathways and natural killer cell function in the airway epithelium 2) diesel exhaust amplifies allergic inflammation while also blunting innate immune pathways. Spinoffs of this work included a multidisciplinary, collaborative project between the UNC Burn Center and CEMALB to study airway inflammatory and other factors influencing risk for acute lung injury and infection in victims of inhalational injury.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Dr. Noah and his colleagues have completed a controlled chamber exposure study of wood smoke exposure effects on the live, attenuated influenza vaccine in adult volunteers. He is also investigating effects of e-cigarettes and other alternative tobacco products on antiviral mucosal immunity along with Ilona Jaspers. Dr. Noah also serves as a co-investigator on a study of the effects of obesity on immunologic response to influenza vaccine, which has produced multiple publications demonstrating suppression of T-cell responses to flu vaccine among adults.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Noah\u2019s future goals are to continue his involvement in significant team science research in order to mitigate the effects of particulate air pollution on respiratory mucosal host defense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":31892,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"layout":"","cellInformation":"","apiCallInformation":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"ud_division":[440,406,409,261,262,437,263],"class_list":["post-36734","ud_entry","type-ud_entry","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","ud_division-all_peds","ud_division-airway","ud_division-airway_pulm","ud_division-pulm","ud_division-pulm_clin_fac","ud_division-pulm_fac","ud_division-pulm_res_fac","odd"],"acf":[],"ud_entry_custom_fields":{"ud_last_name":"Noah","ud_first_name":"Terry","ud_gallery_summary":"","ud_telephone":[{"ud_location":"Administrative Office","ud_number":"9199661055"},{"ud_location":"Fax","ud_number":"9199666179"}],"ud_email":"","ud_positions":[{"ud_title":"Jacob A.
