Plasma sRAGE levels strongly associate with centrilobular emphysema assessed by HRCT scans

Abstract Background There is a strong need for biomarkers to better characterize individuals with COPD and to take into account the heterogeneity of COPD. The blood protein sRAGE has been put forward as promising biomarker for COPD in general and emphysema in particular. Here, we measured plasma sRA...
