Application of microarray technology in pulmonary diseases

Respir Res. 2004 Dec 7;5(1):26. doi: 10.1186/1465-9921-5-26.

Abstract

Microarrays are a powerful tool that have multiple applications both in clinical and cell biology arenas of common lung diseases. To exemplify how this tool can be useful, in this review, we will provide an overview of the application of microarray technology in research relevant to common lung diseases and present some of the future perspectives.
