Use of novel DNA methylation signatures to distinguish between human airway structural cell types (2017)
Conference Proceeding

INTRODUCTION: Chronic inflammatory and fibrotic lung diseases like asthma, COPD and pulmonary fibrosis are characterised by modified phenotype of the airway structural cells. Airway walls are comprised of a robust epithelial layer that lines the lume... Read More about Use of novel DNA methylation signatures to distinguish between human airway structural cell types.

Investigating genome wide DNA methylation in bronchial and lung fibroblasts from healthy individuals and individuals with COPD (2017)
Conference Proceeding

Rationale: Lung fibroblasts are implicated in respiratory disease pathology including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Phenotypic differences between fibroblasts isolated from the bronchi versus the lung parenchyma have been described bu...

The role of histone arginine methylation in gene expression of airway smooth muscle cells in asthma (2017)
Presentation / Conference

Introduction and objectives: Asthma is estimated to affect at least 300 million people globally. About 25% of the patients do not respond to therapy; therefore we need to develop novel treatments. ASM cells have a crucial role in asthma, contributin... Read More about The role of histone arginine methylation in gene expression of airway smooth muscle cells in asthma.
