ADAM33 gene polymorphisms in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
STUDY OBJECTIVE The pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by an interaction of environmental influences, particularly cigarette smoking, and genetic determinants. Given the global increase in COPD, research on the genomic variants that affect susceptibility to this complex disorder is reviving. In the present study, we investigated whether single nucleoti...
متن کاملGene polymorphisms and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
The genetic component was suggested to contribute to the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a major and growing public health burden. The present review aims to characterize the evidence that gene polymorphisms contribute to the aetiology of COPD and related traits, and explore the potential relationship between certain gene polymorphisms and COPD susceptibility, sever...

متن کاملAssociation of TRPV4 gene polymorphisms with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by airway epithelial damage, bronchoconstriction, parenchymal destruction and mucus hypersecretion. Upon activation by a broad range of stimuli, transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) functions to control airway epithelial cell volume and epithelial and endothelial permeability; it also triggers bronchial smooth muscle cont...
متن کاملStatins and Pulmonary Hypertension in Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease
Chronic obstructive lung disease (COPD) is a chronic multisystem disease with a considerable burden. One of its most common complications is pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH). It has been demonstrated that the development of PAH is correlated with decreased quality of life and survival. Different medications have been proposed for the treatment of PAH, among which one can name statins. Howeve...
