Abstract
Numerous genes expression lead to inflammation in the individuals’ lungs that have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may be affected by epigenetic alteration. Important epigenetic processes include methylation of DNA and different histones post-translational changes, including ubiquitination, phosphorylation, methylation, SUMOylation and acetylation. Smoking can trigger the enzymes that control these epigenetic changes. According to the majority of publications, both environmental and genetic variables have a substantial role in the development of COPD. Although, the information about COPD epigenetic is not much but, a better perception of the disease pathophysiology and identifying new markers to create novel therapeutics for patients can be achieved via a better understanding of the epigenetic processes involved.
