Microbial dysbiosis and the host airway epithelial response: insights into HIV-associated COPD using multi’omics profiling

Abstract Background People living with HIV (PLWH) are at increased risk of developing Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) independent of cigarette smoking. We hypothesized that dysbiosis in PLWH is associated with epigenetic and transcriptomic disruptions in the airway epithelium. Methods A...
