Abstract
This study presents an efficient heavy metal (HM) control method in HM-contaminated wetlands with varied soil moisture levels through the introduction of extrinsic arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) into natural wetland soil containing indigenous AMF species. A pot culture experiment was designed to determine the effect of two soil water contents (5-8% and 25-30%), five extrinsic AMF inoculants (Glomus mosseae, G. clarum, G. claroideum, G. etunicatum, and G. intraradices), and HM contamination on root colonization, plant growth, and element uptake of common reed (Phragmites australis (Cav.) Trin. ex Steudel) plantlets in wetland soils. This study showed the prevalence of mycorrhizae in the roots of all P. australis plantlets, regardless of extrinsic AMF inoculations, varied soil moisture or HM levels. It seems that different extrinsic AMF inoculations effectively lowered HM concentrations in the aboveground tissues of P. australis at two soil moisture levels. However, metal species, metal concentrations, and soil moisture should also be very important factors influencing the elemental uptake performance of plants in wetland ecosystems. Besides, the soil moisture level significantly influenced plant growth (including height, and shoot and root dry weight (DW)), and extrinsic AMF inoculations differently affected shoot DW.

Abstract
Transcript fusions as a result of chromosomal rearrangements have been a focus of attention in cancer as they provide attractive therapeutic targets. To identify novel fusion transcripts with the potential to be exploited therapeutically, we analyzed RNA sequencing, DNA copy number and gene mutation data from 4,366 primary tumor samples. To avoid false positives, we implemented stringent quality criteria that included filtering of fusions detected in RNAseq data from 364 normal tissue samples. Our analysis identified 7,887 high confidence fusion transcripts across 13 tumor types. Our fusion prediction was validated by evidence of a genomic rearrangement for 78 of 79 fusions in 48 glioma samples where whole genome sequencing data was available. Cancers with higher levels of genomic instability showed a corresponding increase in fusion transcript frequency, whereas tumor samples harboring fusions contained statistically significantly fewer driver gene mutations, suggesting an important role for tumorigenesis. We identified at least one in-frame protein kinase fusion in 324 of 4,366 samples (7.4%). Potentially druggable kinase fusions involving ALK, ROS, RET, NTRK, and FGFR gene families were detected in bladder carcinoma (3.3%), glioblastoma (4.4%), head and neck cancer (1.0%), low grade glioma (1.5%), lung adenocarcinoma (1.6%), lung squamous cell carcinoma (2.3%), and thyroid carcinoma (8.7%), suggesting a potential for application of kinase inhibitors across tumor types. In-frame fusion transcripts involving histone methyltransferase or histone demethylase genes were detected in 111 samples (2.5%) and may additionally be considered as therapeutic targets. In summary, we described the landscape of transcript fusions detected across a large number of tumor samples and revealed fusion events with clinical relevance that have not been previously recognized. Our results support the concept of basket clinical trials where patients are matched with experimental therapies based on their genomic profile rather than the tissue where the tumor originated.

Abstract
Although co-infection with multiple parasites is a frequent occurrence, changes in the humoral immune response against a pre-existing parasite induced as a result of a subsequent parasitic infection remain undetermined. Here, we utilized enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to investigate antibody responses, cytokine production and enhanced resistance in Clonorchis sinensis-infected rats (Sprague-Dawley) upon Trichinella spiralis infection. Higher levels of C. sinensis-specific IgG and IgA were elicited upon T. spiralis infection, and these levels remained higher than in rats infected with C. sinensis alone. Upon subsequent infection with T. spiralis, IgG antibodies against C. sinensis appeared to be rapidly boosted at day 3, and IgA antibodies were boosted at day 7. Challenge infection of C. sinensis-infected rats with T. spiralis induced substantial mucosal IgG and IgA responses in the liver and intestine and increases in antibody-secreting plasma cells in the spleen and bone marrow. Subsequent infection also appeared to confer effective control of liver C. sinensis loads, resulting in enhanced resistance. Memory B cells generated in response to C. sinensis infection were rapidly amplified into antibody-secreting cells upon T. spiralis infection. These results indicate that enhanced C. sinensis clearance induced by co-infection is associated with systemic and mucosal IgG and IgA responses.

Abstract
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) has been reported to induce a potent anti-inflammatory response. Autophagy is a recently recognized rudimentary cellular response to inflammation and injury. The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that PPARα activation mediates autophagy to inhibit liver inflammation and protect against acute liver failure (ALF). PPARα expression during ALF and the impact of PPARα activation by Wy-14 643 on the hepatic immune response were studied in a D-galactosamine/lipopolysaccharide-induced mouse model. Autophagy was inhibited by 3-methyladenine or small interfering RNA (siRNA) against Atg7. In both the mouse model and human ALF subjects, PPARα was significantly downregulated in the injured liver. PPARα activation by pretreatment with Wy-14 643 protected against liver injury in mice. The protective effect of PPARα activation relied on the suppression of inflammatory mechanisms through the induction of autophagy. This hypothesis is supported by the following evidence: first, PPARα activation suppressed proinflammatory responses and inhibited phosphorylated NF-κBp65, phosphorylated JNK and phosphorylated ERK pathways in vivo. Second, protection by PPARα activation was due to the induction of autophagy because inhibition of autophagy by 3-methyladenine or Atg7 siRNA reversed liver protection and inflammation. Third, PPARα activation directly induced autophagy in primary macrophages in vitro, which protected cells from a lipopolysaccharide-induced proinflammatory response. Here, for the first time, we have demonstrated that PPARα-mediated induction of autophagy ameliorated liver injury in cases of ALF by attenuating inflammatory responses, indicating a potential therapeutic application for ALF treatment.

Abstract
AIMS Biliary tract obstruction is a common clinical lesion. However, the effect of biliary tract obstruction on intestinal secretion is poorly understood. In this study, we made an investigation on intestinal HCO3 (-) and Cl(-) secretions in an experimental model of murine biliary duct ligation. METHODS Murine intestinal mucosal HCO3 (-) and Cl(-) secretions were examined in vitro in Ussing chambers by pH-stat and short-circuit current (Isc ) techniques. The mRNA and protein expressions of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) and the Na(+) -K(+) -2Cl(-) cotransporter (NKCC1) were analysed by real-time PCR, western blot and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Basal Cl(-) secretion and forskolin-stimulated duodenal and jejunal mucosal HCO3 (-) and Cl(-) secretions in mice with common biliary duct ligation were markedly elevated, compared with controls (P < 0.05 and P < 0.01). Further experiments showed that basal Cl(-) secretion and forskolin-stimulated duodenal and jejunal mucosal HCO3 (-) and Cl(-) secretions in mice with external bile drainage were also markedly elevated. CFTRinh -172 inhibited forskolin-stimulated HCO3 (-) and Cl(-) secretions. The mRNA and protein expression levels of CFTR and NKCC1 in the intestinal mucosa with both biliary duct ligation and external bile drainage were markedly higher than those in controls (P < 0.001). Bile acid administration restored the changes in function and expression of CFTR and NKCC1 in the intestinal mucosa. CONCLUSION Bile deficiency in the intestine up-regulates the expressions of intestinal mucosal CFTR and NKCC1 and enhances intestinal mucosal HCO3 (-) and Cl(-) secretion capacity, which contributes to the understanding of intestinal physiological function for patients with biliary duct obstruction.

Abstract
The patients with false immune diagnosis of hydatid disease were investigated for the humoural immune response to analyse the possible reasons and mechanism leading to false immune diagnosis. Two hundred and thirty-nine patients with nature-unknown cysts and 30 healthy controls were detected by immunological assays (four hydatid antigen-based immunogold filtration assay and enzyme-linked immune absorbent assay) and ultrasound. Sensitivity of and specificity of immunological assay and ultrasound were calculated, respectively. The serological diagnosis was compared with surgical pathology to screen the patients with false immune diagnosis for the immunoglobulin measurement and pathological analysis. The history and cyst characteristics were also reviewed. The results indicate the immunoglobulin has little influence on false immunodiagnosis. The false-negative immunodiagnosis was caused by the cysts' inactive status while the false positive caused by previous rupture, antigen cross-reaction. The clinical diagnosis of cystic echinococcosis requires a combination of immunodiagnosis and ultrasonography, which is the necessary complementary confirmation.

Abstract
The previous studies found that chronic inflammation related to an increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). This study aims to explore the associations of polymorphisms in inflammation-related genes (IL10, IL10RA, IL6R, TNFRSF1A, TNFRSF1B, LTA and IL4) and their interactions with the risk of colorectal cancer among Chinese population. A population-based case-control study including 299 cases and 296 controls was conducted from January 2001 to December 2009. Multivariate unconditional logistic regression was used to analyse the association of nine SNPs in inflammation-related genes with the risk of CRC, colon cancer and rectal cancer, respectively. Generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction (GMDR) was implemented to explore the gene-gene interactions among all SNPs on CRC. A decreased risk of colorectal cancer in subjects with rs1800872 AC genotype of IL10 (OR = 0.643, 95%CI = 0.453, 0.912) or AC/CC genotype (OR = 0.636, 95%CI = 0.457, 0.885) was observed, compared with those with AA genotype. Meanwhile, similar associations were observed between rs1800872 and rectal cancer. Additionally, in rs1061624 of TNFRSF1B gene, AG genotype (OR=0.566; 95% CI= 0.362, 0.885) and AG/GG genotype (OR=0.638; 95% CI=0.420, 0.971) were significantly associated with a decreased risk of rectal cancer, respectively. Our findings indicated that mutants in IL10 and TNFRSF1B genes may change the CRC risk. However, there is no interaction between inflammation-related genes on CRC risk.

Abstract
Advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs), a novel protein marker of oxidative damage, have been confirmed to accumulate in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), as well as those with diabetes and chronic kidney disease. However, the role of AOPPs in the intestinal epithelium remains unclear. This study was designed to investigate whether AOPPs have an effect on intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) death and intestinal injury. Immortalized rat intestinal epithelial (IEC-6) cells and normal Sprague Dawley rats were treated with AOPP-albumin prepared by incubation of rat serum albumin (RSA) with hypochlorous acid. Epithelial cell death, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase subunit activity, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, apoptosis-related protein expression, and c-jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) phosphorylation were detected both in vivo and in vitro. In addition, we measured AOPPs deposition and IEC death in 23 subjects with Crohn's disease (CD). Extracellular AOPP-RSA accumulation induced apoptosis in IEC-6 cultures. The triggering effect of AOPPs was mainly mediated by a redox-dependent pathway, including NADPH oxidase-derived ROS generation, JNK phosphorylation, and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) activation. Chronic AOPP-RSA administration to normal rats resulted in AOPPs deposition in the villous epithelial cells and in inflammatory cells in the lamina propria. These changes were companied with IEC death, inflammatory cellular infiltration, and intestinal injury. Both cell death and intestinal injury were ameliorated by chronic treatment with apocynin. Furthermore, AOPPs deposition was also observed in IECs and inflammatory cells in the lamina propria of patients with CD. The high immunoreactive score of AOPPs showed increased apoptosis. Our results demonstrate that AOPPs trigger IEC death and intestinal tissue injury via a redox-mediated pathway. These data suggest that AOPPs may represent a novel pathogenic factor that contributes to IBD progression. Targeting AOPP-induced cellular mechanisms might emerge as a promising therapeutic option for patients with IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abnormality in the number and function of regulatory T cells (Tregs) has been linked to initiation and progression in patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). AIM This study aims to demonstrate the apoptosis status of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and its correlation with clinical activity of RA patients and the effect of interleukin-10 (IL-10) on Tregs apoptosis in RA. MATERIALS AND METHODS Apoptosis rates and its related molecules including Fas, Bcl-2, Caspase-3 and Caspase-8 were examined using flow cytometry. The correlation between the apoptosis level of Tregs and clinical activity parameters including ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate), CPR (C reactive protein), RF (Rheumatoid Factor) and DAS28 (Disease activity score 28) was analysed. PBMCs isolated from RA patients were cultured with IL-10 or anti-IL-10, and the apoptosis frequency of Tregs was then analyzed. RESULTS The frequency of Tregs in active RA patients was decreased, and Fas, Caspase-3 and Caspase-8 expression on Tregs was much higher compared with the healthy subjects. The expression of anti-apoptotic protein, Bcl-2 on Tregs did not display significant changes between active RA patients and healthy subjects. There was a significantly positive correlation between the levels of apoptosis rates and Caspase-3 expression in Tregs and DAS28 of active RA patients. The apoptosis rates of Tregs in RA patients decreased or increased, respectively, following treatment with IL-10 or anti-IL-10 antibody in vitro. CONCLUSIONS Apoptosis pathways are defective in Treg cells from RA patients with active disease. IL-10 treatment can modulate apoptosis in Tregs via extrinsic (type I) pathway, which may lead to restoration of the Tregs towards that of controlling autoimmune reaction in RA patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Tumor progression is influenced by the dynamic interplay between the genetically-modified epithelium and the associated microenvironment. We previously showed that the extra-cellular matrix (ECM) progressively stiffens as mammary tumors evolve, and that stiffening the ECM promotes malignant transformation while inhibiting ECM stiffening reduces tumor progression (Levental et al., 2009; reviewed in Butcher et al., 2009). Yet breast cancers also exhibit elevated influx of inflammatory cells and tissue inflammation promotes tumor progression by fostering angiogenesis and enhancing tumor cell growth and motility (Ruffell et al., 2011). Tumor-associated macrophages additionally stimulate stromal fibroblasts, implying that tissue inflammation could promote malignancy by stiffening the ECM. To address this possibility, we explored the relationship between ECM tension and macrophages in human breast cancer and during mammary tumor development in transgenic mice. Using fresh and archived tissue samples, we quantified a progressive increase in ECM remodeling and stiffening as human breast tumors and mouse mammary cancers developed. We found that the ECM associated with triple negative breast cancers was almost twice as stiff as the ECM adjacent to ER+/PR+ tumors and that ECM stiffness correlated significantly with increased numbers of infiltrating activated macrophages. Consistently, we established a positive correlation between tumor progression, elevated mechanosignaling, ECM stiffness and tissue inflammation in both human and mouse tissue. However surprisingly, when macrophages were depleted from the mammary glands of MMTV-PyMT tumors, ECM tension did not change. Instead we found that inhibiting lysyl oxidase activity to decrease collagen cross-linking and ECM stiffness reduced the activation state of the macrophages within the mammary glands of 14-week old mice. Consistently, in vitro studies showed that ECM tension potentiates the expression of pro-inflammatory chemokines and increases levels of phosphoStat3 and that ECM tension directly modifies macrophage polarity. These findings suggest that ECM tension may promote malignancy either by directly regulating macrophage activity or indirectly through enhancing expression of pro-inflammatory chemokines. Further studies are now underway to explore these findings and to clarify their impact on tumor progression and response to therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Incidence of infection due to extended-spectrum β-lactamase producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (ESBL-KP) has increased rapidly in recent years. However, its prevalence in cancer patients is seldom reported. AIMS This study was designed to identify the risk factors for bloodstream infections (BSIs) with ESBL-KP, and to understand its susceptibility among cancer patients on antibiotics. METHODS We conducted a retrospective study with a total of 118 cancer patients between 2009 and 2011 with BSIs, among which 88 were infected with non-ESBL-KP and 30 with ESBL-KP. Patterns of susceptibility, clinical characteristics and mortality were investigated. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to unveil independent risk factors. RESULTS On multivariate analysis, length of stay (LOS) (p = 0.025), and prior exposure to cephalosporins (p = 0.006), fluoroquinolones (p = 0.011), macrolides (p = 0.007) and aminoglycosides (p = 0.008) were independent risk factors for BSIs of ESBL-KP. For mortality, there was no significant difference between ESBL-KP and non-ESBL-KP groups (p = 0.431). Moreover, compared with non-ESBL-KP, ESBL-KP displayed reduced sensitivity to aminoglycosides (p < 0.001, except amikacin), fluoroquinolones (p < 0.001), piperacillin-tazobactam (p = 0.005) and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (p < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSIONS ESBL-KP exhibited less susceptibility to various non-β-lactamase antibiotics, and infections due to these organisms were related to LOS and preexisting use of antibiotics. Thus, judicious use of all antibiotics should be underscored to reduce the infections caused by ESBL-KP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate physiological and pathological processes by suppressing target gene expression. Altered expression of miR-30a-3p has been demonstrated in several cancers. However, little about how miR-30a-3p functions in these cancers has been reported, and the role of miR-30a-3p in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unknown. The purpose of this study was to identify the role and underlying molecular mechanism of action of miR-30a-3p in HCC. METHODS A total of 110 HCC patients, primarily treated by surgical removal of tumors, were involved in the study. HCC cell line Bel-7402 was selected to characterize the function of miR-30a-3p in vitro. RESULTS Our results showed that in 83.6% of the 110 HCC patients, expression of miR-30a-3p was significantly downregulated (P < 0.0001) in tumors compared to adjacent normal tissues. In a clinicopathological correlation analysis, downregulation of miR-30a-3p correlated with a significantly higher incidence of portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT, P = 0.009). Moreover, miR-30a-3p markedly inhibited the invasion and migration of Bel-7402 HCC cells in vitro. Furthermore, miR-30a-3p overexpression had an inhibitory effect on cell proliferation, induced apoptosis and increased arrest of cells in the S phase. We further demonstrated that miR-30a-3p regulates HCC cell function by a mechanism involving reduced vimentin and MMP3 expression and restoration of E-cadherin expression. CONCLUSIONS our data suggest that miR-30a-3p is downregulated in HCC and acts as a tumor suppressor in vitro. Regulation of vimentin, E-cadherin and MMP3 by miR-30a-3p suggests a useful therapeutic strategy for tumors with reduced miR-30a-3p expression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) still accounts for high mortality and morbidity of cancer patients worldwide. Early detection screening and therapeutic management of CRC are still traditional, with some important progress including cetuximab, microsatellite instability and the concept of CRC intrinsic subtypes. SUMMARY Most achievements are derived from translational cancer research. Translational cancer research attempts to better understand the heterogeneity of human cancer and further turn discoveries into benefits for cancer patients. The four basic strategies of translational research can be depicted as (a) biomarker discovery, (b) identification in xenografts, (c) population-based verification and (d) clinical validation.

Abstract
IL-17 and IL-22 are implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. The roles of IL-22 in the pathophysiology of myasthenia gravis (MG) remain unsettled. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible relationship between serum IL-22, IL-17 levels, anti-acetylcholine receptor antibody (anti-AChR Ab) titres and clinical parameters in patients with MG. The serum IL-22, IL-17 levels and anti-AChR Ab titres were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), while the expression of IL-22 and IL-17 mRNAs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from healthy and MG subjects were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Furthermore, PBMC from 12 patients with generalized MG were purified and treated with recombinant human IL-22 (rhIL-22), the IL-17 levels of supernatant were detected by ELISA. We found that the IL-17 levels were significantly increased, but IL-22 levels were significantly decreased in the serum of patients with MG compared with healthy controls. Consistantly, a significant decrease in IL-22 mRNA levels and an increase in IL-17 mRNA levels were detected in PBMC collected from patients with MG, compared with healthy controls. A negative correlation between IL-22 mRNA in PBMC, serum IL-22 and serum anti-AChR Ab levels was found in patients with MG. Moreover, in cultured MG PBMC treated with recombinant human IL-22 (rhIL-22), the IL-17 levels were decreased in a dose-dependent manner. Our findings indicated a possible role of IL-22 as a protective factor in MG.

Abstract
Diarrhoeagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) infection is a major health problem in developing countries. The prevalence and characteristics of DEC have not been thoroughly investigated in China. Consecutive faecal specimens from outpatients with acute diarrhoea in nine sentinel hospitals in southeastern China were collected from July 2009 to June 2011. Bacterial and viral pathogens were detected by culture and RT-PCR, respectively. DEC isolates were further classified into five pathotypes using multiplex PCR. The O/H serotypes, sequence types (STs) and antimicrobial susceptibility profiles of the DEC isolates were determined. A total of 2466 faecal specimens were collected, from which 347 (14.1%) DEC isolates were isolated. DEC was the dominant bacterial pathogen detected. The DEC isolates included 217 EAEC, 62 ETEC, 52 EPEC, 14 STEC, one EIEC and one EAEC/ETEC. O45 (6.6%) was the predominant serotype. Genotypic analysis revealed that the major genotype was ST complex 10 (87, 25.6%). Isolates belonging to the serogroups or genotypes of O6, O25, O159, ST48, ST218, ST94 and ST1491 were highly susceptible to the majority of antimicrobials. In contrast, isolates belonging to O45, O15, O1, O169, ST38, ST226, ST69, ST31, ST93, ST394 and ST648 were highly resistant to the majority of antimicrobials. DEC accounted for the majority of bacterial pathogens causing acute diarrhoea in southeastern China, and it is therefore necessary to test for all DEC, not only the EHEC O157:H7. Some serogroups or genotypes of DEC were highly resistant to the majority of antimicrobials. DEC surveillance should be emphasized.

Abstract
Liver allografts are spontaneously accepted across MHC barriers in mice. The mechanisms underlying this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Galectin-1, an endogenous lectin expressed in lymphoid organs, plays a vital role in maintaining central and peripheral tolerance. This study was to investigate the role of galectin-1 in spontaneous tolerance of liver allografts in mice, and to evaluate the therapeutic effects of galectin-1 on liver allograft rejection induced by donor Flt3L pretreatment. Blockade of the galectin-1 pathway via neutralizing antigalectin-1 mAb did not affect survival of the liver allografts from B6 donors into C3H recipients. Administration of rGal-1 significantly prolonged survival of liver allografts from Flt3L-pretreated donors and ameliorated Flt3L-triggered liver allograft rejection. This effect was associated with increased apoptosis of T cells in both allografts and spleens, decreased frequencies of Th1 and Th17 cells, decreased expression of Th1-associated cytokines (IL-12, IL-2 and IFN-γ), Th17-associated cytokines (IL-23 and IL-17) and granzyme B, in parallel with selectively increased IL-10 expression in liver allografts. In vitro, galectin-1 inhibited Flt3L-differentiated DC-mediated proliferation of allo-CD4(+) T cells and production of IFN-γ and IL-17. These data provide new evidence of the potential regulatory effects of galectin-1 in alloimmune responses in a murine model of liver transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Decreased oxygen supply may cause neuronal damage in the brains of patients with COPD, which is manifested by clinical symptoms such as neuropsychological deficits and mood disorders. The aim of the present study was to investigate brain gray matter change in COPD. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using voxel-based morphometry based on the high-resolution 3D T1-weighted MR images of GM volume, we investigated 25 stable patients with COPD and 25 matching healthy volunteers. A battery of neuropsychological tests was also performed. RESULTS Patients with COPD (versus controls) showed reduced GM volume in the frontal cortex (bilateral gyrus rectus, bilateral orbital and inferior triangular gyri, and left medial superior gyrus), right anterior insula, cingulate cortex (left anterior and middle gyri, right middle gyrus), right thalamus/pulvinar, right caudate, right putamen, right parahippocampus, and left amygdala. In COPD, in some of these regions, regional GM volume had positive correlations with arterial blood po(2), while in some regions, regional GM volume had negative correlations with disease duration. Patients with COPD (versus controls) had poorer performance in the Mini-Mental State Examination, Visual Reproduction, and Figure Memory tests. Moreover, the GM volume in the inferior triangular frontal cortex in patients with COPD was significantly correlated with the Picture Memory score. CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggest GM reductions in a number of brain regions in COPD, which were associated with disease severity and may underlie the pathophysiologic and psychological changes in patients with COPD.
