RationaleWhile many studies have examined gene expression in lung tissue, the gene regulatory processes underlying emphysema are still not well understood. Finding efficient non-imaging screening methods and disease-modifying therapies has been challenging, but knowledge of the transcriptomic features of emphysema may help in this effort. ObjectivesOur goals were to identify emphysema-associated biological pathways through transcriptomic analysis of bulk lung tissue, to determine the lung cell ...
