Altered gene expression in blood and sputum in COPD frequent exacerbators in the ECLIPSE cohort.

Altered gene expression in blood and sputum in COPD frequent exacerbators in the ECLIPSE cohort.

Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) who are defined as frequent exacerbators suffer with 2 or more exacerbations every year. The molecular mechanisms responsible for this phenotype are poorly understood. We investigated gene expression profile patterns associated with frequent...
