Candidate gene prioritization for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease using expression information in protein–protein interaction networks

Abstract Background Identifying or prioritizing genes for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), one type of complex disease, is particularly important for its prevention and treatment. Methods In this paper, a novel method was proposed to Prioritize genes using Expression information in Prot...
