Airborne agents enter the body for the most part by first contacting some part of the respiratory epithelium. Particulates and gases may cross the epithelium by solution in the cell membranes or pinocytosis. Insoluble particles may be engulfed and removed by macrophages and mucociliary clearance mechanisms, but macrophages engorged with particulate materials may remain in the lung for prolonged times and serve as a source for continued exposure of other cells to potential toxins.
