Induced Sputum Genes Associated With Spirometroc and Radiological Disease Severity in COPD Ex-smokers
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Induced sputum is used to sample inflammatory cells, predominantly neutrophils and macrophages, from the airways of COPD patients. Our aim was to identify candidate genes associated with the degree of airflow obstruction and the extent of emphysema by expression profiling, and then to confirm these findings for selected candidates using specific PCR and protein analysis.
