From: Sulfatase modifying factor 1 (SUMF1) is associated with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
SUMF1 expression is altered in COPD patients. A master panel of mRNA from twenty different human tissues was probed for total SUMF1 mRNA expression (a) as well as three individual Splice variants 1 (b), 2 (c) and 3 (d). Total SUMF1 mRNA expression (e) as well as Splice variant 1 (f), 2 (g) and 3 (h) expression were examined in sputum cells from COPD patients and controls in the Lund cohort. * = p < 0.05 and ** = p < 0.01, A.U. = Arbitrary units, M-W = Mann-Whitney test used
