MiRNA-mRNA-protein dysregulated network in COPD in women.

ABSTRACT: Rationale: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex disease caused by a multitude of underlying mechanisms, and molecular mechanistic modeling of COPD, especially at a multi-molecular level, is needed to facilitate the development of molecular diagnostic and prognostic tools and efficacious treatments. Objectives: To investigate the miRNA-mRNA-protein dysregulated network to facilitate prediction of biomarkers and disease subnetwork in COPD in women. Measurements and Results: Three omics data blocks (mRNA, miRNA, and protein) collected from BAL cells from female current-smoker COPD patients, smokers with normal lung function, and healthy never-smokers were integrated with miRNA-mRNA-protein regulatory networks to construct a COPD-specific dysregulated
