An in vivo genetic screen of lung function candidate genes using tissue-specific RNAi in Drosophila melanogaster

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a poorly treatable respiratory condition marked by a progressive and irreversible airflow limitation. The airway epithelium (AE), serving as the first line of defence against inhaled insults, fulfils multiple functions to ensure pulmonary homeostasis....
