The relationship between nasal epithelial gene expressions associated with smoking-cessation and cessation-induced changes in cross-sectional bronchial epithelium gene expression Nasal epithelial genes whose expression decreased after smoking-cessation were concordantly enriched among bronchial epithelial genes whose expression levels were lower in long-term former smokers compared to current smokers (FDR < 10−3). The color bar indicates ranking of genes with response to gene expression changes when comparing current verses long term former smokers. Vertical bars indicate genes substantially decreased with smoking-cessation in the current study. The height of the bars indicates the running GSEA enrichment score.
