Novel computational analysis of large transcriptome datasets identifies sets of genes distinguishing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease from healthy lung samples

Abstract Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) kills over three million people worldwide every year. Despite its high global impact, the knowledge about the underlying molecular mechanisms is still limited. In this study, we aimed to extend the available knowledge by identifying a small set o...
