An innate contribution of human nicotinic receptor polymorphisms to COPD-like lesions

Human polymorphisms in nicotinic acetylcholine receptor genes have been linked to both smoking and lung diseases like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) or lung cancer. Here the authors identify a direct role for a human coding polymorphism in COPD-like lesions independent of smoke or nico...

Sumario:Human polymorphisms in nicotinic acetylcholine receptor genes have been linked to both smoking and lung diseases like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) or lung cancer. Here the authors identify a direct role for a human coding polymorphism in COPD-like lesions independent of smoke or nicotine exposure.
