Using combined biological data and machine learning to identify CHRNA1 as a possible daily rhythm and immune system regulator in COPD

Updated

Abstract

Circadian rhythm disruption may contribute to chronic inflammatory disorders like COPD.

  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) could be linked to disturbances in circadian rhythms.
  • Identifying circadian rhythm-associated biomarkers in COPD may help in understanding the disease's mechanisms.
  • Exploring these biomarkers could provide insights into their potential diagnostic value and immune system relationships.
  • The therapeutic potential of targeting circadian rhythms in COPD is still under investigation.
