Background:
Dysregulation of circRNAs has been reported to be functionally associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The present investigation elucidated the potential role of CircRNA0001859 in regulating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease acute (COPD) and Acute Exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD).
Methods:
Mice model of COPD was established to screen and verify the dysregulated expression of CircRNA0001859. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) were carried out to detect the expression of CircRNA0001859. 38 stable COPD patients, 24 AECOPD patients, 57 COPD with lung cancer patients and 28 healthy person with age and sex matched to total patients were used for the present investigation.
Results:
circRNA0001859 was downregulated in the lung tissue of mice after the three kinds of treatments (Cigarette smoke (CS)/NK alone or CS + NNK) for inducing COPD. FISH assay verified the downregulation of circRNA0001859 both in the mice lung and human bronchial epithelial cell of COPD model. Furthermore,, the level of circRNA0001859 was also downregulated in the peripheral blood of COPD and lung cancer patients. CircRNA0001859 might act as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for the treatment of in COPD and AECOPD with Are under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) (AUC) of 0.7433 and 0.8717, respectively.
Conclusion:
We explored a novel circRNA0001859, which might act as a potential therapeutic biomarker for the treatment of COPD and AECOPD.

COPD: Pathogenesis and Clinical Features
The primary cause for the onset of COPD is cigarette smoking and exposure to air pollution. These hazardous factors initiate a chain reaction within the lungs, resulting in chronic inflammation, damage to the airways, and a...

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Smoking is a primary risk factor for COPD, with over 80% of patients having a history of it. Patients typically experience progressive dyspnea or labored breathing, frequent coughing, and recurrent pulmonary infections. Many eventually succumb to respiratory failure, characterized by...
