Smoking induces shifts in cellular composition and transcriptome within the bronchial mucus barrier

Smoking disturbs the bronchial‐mucus‐barrier. This study assesses the cellular composition and gene expression shifts of the bronchial‐mucus‐barrier with smoking to understand the mechanism of mucosal damage by cigarette smoke exposure. We explore whether single‐cell‐RNA‐sequencing (scRNA‐seq) based cellular deconvolution (CD) can predict cell‐type composition in RNA‐seq data.

Keywords: cellular composition; bronchial mucus; mucus barrier
