In the emphysematous COPD patients, the highest DEGs were ACER2 (up-regulated) and LMAN2L (down-regulated) whilst the cholinergic receptor muscarinic 3 (CHRM3, up-regulated) and histone deacetylase (HDAC)10 (down-regulated) were similarly represented in the COPD without emphysema group [44]. The gene discussed is CHRM3; the disease is chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
