IL6 and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: While our study successfully induced predominant IL6‐AS1 expression in murine lung fibroblasts through adenoviral manipulation, mimicking its human tissue localization, and observed resultant effects such as decreased pulmonary function, intensified inflammation, and COPD‐like pathological alterations, it is important to acknowledge that this model has limitations in representing the full functional relevance of IL6‐AS1 in the human body.
