Expression of long non‐coding RNA LUCAT1 in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and its potential functions in regulating cigarette smoke extract‐induced 16HBE cell proliferation and apoptosis

Abstract

LncRNA LUCAT1 may be a valuable indicator for differentiating COPD. Moreover, LncRNA LUCAT1/miR-181-5p/Wnt/β-catenin axis behaved as a critical role in COPD development, shedding new sights for clinical treatment.
