Gene expression profile of epithelial–mesenchymal transition in tumours of patients with nonsmall cell lung cancer: the influence of COPD

Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) is involved in the pathophysiology of lung cancer (LC) and COPD, and the latter is an important risk factor for LC. We hypothesised that the EMT gene expression profile and signalling cascade may differ in LC patients with COPD from those with no respiratory d...
