Genetic Evidence for Unified Airway Disease: Shared Epithelial and Immune Architecture Across Major Airway Diseases.

Abstract excerpt

Major airway diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, bronchiectasis and chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps (CRSsNP), frequently coexist and share inflammatory, epithelial and remodeling features. However, whether these clinically distinct airway disorders are driven by a unified genetic liability and how this shared liability maps to disease-relevant tissues, genes and...
