3.3. Differential Expression and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis of COPD-Predominant Clusters
To determine the gene expression signatures specific to COPD-predominant clusters, we performed a DE analysis (Next, we investigated the COPD-predominant IL1B-high classical monocyte Cluster 15. Classical monocytes are considered to be highly phagocytic cells, with capacity for a potent inflammatory immune response and migratory functions [
