lüll Complex systems in pulmonary medicine: a systems biology approach to lung disease Kaminsky DA; Irvin CG; Sterk PJJ Appl Physiol (1985) 2011[Jun]; 110 (6): 1716-22The lung is a highly complex organ that can only be understood by integrating the many aspects of its structure and function into a comprehensive view. Such a view is provided by a systems biology approach, whereby the many layers of complexity, from the molecular genetic, to the cellular, to the tissue, to the whole organ, and finally to the whole body, are synthesized into a working model of understanding. The systems biology approach therefore relies on the expertise of many disciplines, including genomics, proteomics, metabolomics, physiomics, and, ultimately, clinical medicine. The overall structure and functioning of the lung cannot be predicted from studying any one of these systems in isolation, and so this approach highlights the importance of emergence as the fundamental feature of systems biology. In this paper, we will provide an overview of a systems biology approach to lung disease by briefly reviewing the advances made at many of these levels, with special emphasis on recent work done in the realm of pulmonary physiology and the analysis of clinical phenotypes.|*Lung Diseases/genetics/pathology/physiopathology/therapy[MESH]|*Lung/pathology/physiopathology[MESH]|*Systems Biology[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Disease Progression[MESH]|Gene Expression Regulation[MESH]|Genetic Predisposition to Disease[MESH]|High-Throughput Nucleotide Sequencing[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Phenotype[MESH]|Prognosis[MESH]|Systems Integration[MESH] |
