Relationship between gene expression and lung function in Idiopathic Interstitial Pneumonias
26 Oct 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Idiopathic interstitial pneumonias (IIPs) are a group of heterogeneous, somewhat unpredictable diseases characterized by progressive scarring of the interstitium. Since lung function is a key determinant of survival, we reasoned that the transcriptional profile in IIP lung tissue would be associated with measures of lung function, and could enhance prognostic approaches to IIPs. RESULTS: Using gene...
