Epigenetic mechanisms in respiratory muscle dysfunction of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Epigenetic mechanisms in respiratory muscle dysfunction of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Epigenetic events are differentially expressed in the lungs and airways of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Moreover, epigenetic mechanisms are involved in the skeletal (peripheral) muscle dysfunction of COPD patients. Whether epigenetic events may also regulate respirator...
