We used mass cytometry to extensively characterize bronchoalveolar lavage macrophages before and two days after in vivo rhinovirus 16 infection in a heterogeneous population of healthy and asthma/COPD subjects. Multivariate partial least squares discriminant analysis revealed distinct clusters of alveolar macrophages before versus after the virus, suggesting changes in overall phenotype.
