Research Article: A Macrophage-Related Gene Signature for Identifying COPD Based on Bioinformatics and ex vivo Experiments

Date Published: 2023-11-29

Abstract:
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a respiratory disease characterized by progressive airflow limitation and chronic inflammation of the airway and lung parenchyma. It is the result of interactions between innate genetic factors, such as ?-antitrypsin deficiency, and acquired environmental factors, such as smoking.– Whether in developed or developing countries, the high incidence, disability and mortality of COPD have brought heavy economic burden to patients and society., Diagnosis and timely treatment have critical clinical significance for slowing down the decline of pulmonary function and improving the long-term prognosis of patients. Nevertheless, relying solely on pulmonary function monitoring and imaging examination cannot fully identify the specific initial stage of COPD at present.– Undoubtedly, the accurate clinical diagnosis of COPD has yet to be resolved which is the utmost important.
