Microarray analysis identifies defects in regenerative and immune response pathways in COPD airway basal cells
Background Airway basal cells are specialised stem cells and regenerate airway epithelium. Airway basal cells isolated from patients with COPD regenerate airway epithelium with an abnormal phenotype. We performed gene expression analysis to gain insights into the defective regenerative programme in...
