The expressions and significance of APN, D-D, IL-17 and hs-CRP in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

CONCLUSIONS: Levels of APN were downregulated in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The expression levels of APN, IL-17, D-D, and Hs-CRP were closely correlated with clinical stages and can be used as parameters for the evaluation of the severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
