Integrative Genomics of Emphysema-Associated Genes Reveals Potential Disease Biomarkers
1 May 2017
Abstract excerpt
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is the third leading cause of death worldwide. Gene expression profiling across multiple regions of the same lung identified genes significantly related to emphysema. We sought to determine whether the lung and epithelial expression of 127 emphysema-related genes was also related to lung function in independent cohorts, and whether any of these genes could be used as...
