Epigenetic Reprogramming Drives Epithelial Disruption in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remains a major public health challenge that contributes greatly to mortality and morbidity worldwide. Although it has long been recognized that the epithelium is altered in COPD, there has been little focus on targeting it to modify the disease course. Therefore, mechanisms that disrupt epithelial cell function in patients with COPD are poorly understood. In...
