...Jie Song; Qihu Wang; Liguo Zong Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a common airway disease characterized by an exaggerated pulmonary inflammatory response. Long noncoding MIR155 host gene (lncRNA MIR155HG) has been identified to be related to the macrophage polarization in COPD...

... while the patients were breathing room air. PaO 2 and PaCO 2 , PH were analyzed with a blood gas analyzer (Radiometer ABL 800 Flex-Denmark). Table 2 Univariate logistic regression analysis of short-term prognosis for COPD with acute exacerbation Parameter β SE Waldχ 2 P OR (95% CI...

... of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in order to find new therapeutic targets for treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). HBECs were exposed to TAPM2.5 and WSPM2.5 at a series of concentrations. The microarray analysis was used to detect the lncRNA and mRNA expression profiles. Kyoto...

...Licheng Wang; Yanliang Tang; Ye Chen Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a type of obstructive lung disease characterized by long-term poor airflow. Recently, variants in the hypoxia inducible factor 1α ( HIF1A ) gene were found to be associated with COPD risk. The present study aimed...
