Clinical significance of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

摘要

Background/AimsSeveral studies have identified a role for nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, the relationship between the plasma Nrf2 level and the extent of systemic inflammation associated with COPD status remains unclear.
