Abstract excerpt

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is one of the leading causes of mortality, which is caused by the interaction of genetic susceptibility with environmental factors (especially smoking); however, genetic features of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease still remain unknown. The only proven genetic risk factor is severe deficiency of plasma protease inhibitor, alpha-1 antitrypsin. A large number of candidate...
