Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is the third leading cause of death globally and thus imposes heavy economic burden on patients, their families, and society. Furthermore, COPD seriously affects the quality of life of patients. The concept of "overall regulation" of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of COPD. AIM OF THE STUDY The objective of this review is to summarize the TCM theories, experimental methods, TCM extracts, active TCM ingredients, and TCM formulas for the treatment of COPD and reveal the effects and mechanisms of TCM treatments on COPD. MATERIALS AND METHODS This article reviewed literature on TCM-based treatments for COPD reported from 2016 to 2021. Relevant scientific studies were obtained from databases that included PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Web of Science, Google Scholar, The Plant List, ScienceDirect, and SciFinder. RESULTS This review summarized TCM-based theory, experimental methods, active ingredients, and potential toxicities, the effects of TCM extracts and formulations, and their mechanisms for the treatment of COPD. Most investigators have used in vivo models of cigarette smoke combined with lipopolysaccharide induction in rats and in vitro models of cigarette smoke extract induction. The active ingredients of TCM used for the treatment of COPD in relevant studies were triterpenoids, flavonoids, phenolics, quinones, glycosides, and alkaloids. TCMs commonly used in the treatment of COPD include antipyretic drugs, tonic medicines, anticough medications, and asthma medications. TCM can treat COPD by suppressing inflammation, reducing oxidative stress, inhibiting apoptosis, and improving airway remodeling. CONCLUSIONS This review enriches the theory of COPD treatments based on TCM, established the clinical significance and development prospects of TCM-based COPD treatments, and provided the necessary theoretical support for the further development of TCM resources for the treatment of COPD.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a complex pulmonary disease that causes airflow obstruction in humans. To identify the core genes in COPD pathogenesis, seven diverse microarray datasets (GSE475, GSE1122, GSE1650, GSE3212, GSE8823, GSE37768, and GSE22148) were downloaded from the gene expression omnibus database. All the datasets were analyzed independently with the R/Bioconductor package to screen the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The gene ontology and pathway enrichment analysis were performed for the acquired DEGs using DAVID (Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integrated Discovery). Further protein-protein interaction network was constructed for the DEGs and their potential hub genes and sub-networks were identified using Cytoscape software. From the selected seven datasets, 188 overlapped DEGs were perceived eventually based on considering the repetitive genes between at-least one dataset. Gene Ontology analysis reveals that most of the DEGs were significantly enriched in immune response, inflammatory response, extracellular region, lipid binding, cytokine, and chemokine activity. Moreover, genes from the sub-network analysis were again submitted to the DAVID server to validate the results which uncover the Toll-like receptor signaling pathway was significantly enriched and all the genes present in this pathway were likewise detected as hub genes from Cytoscape software. CXCL9, CXCL10, CXCL11, CCL4, TLR7, and SPP1 hub genes in the toll-like receptor signaling pathway were explored in this study as potential biomarker genes associated with COPD pathogenesis.
