Figure 4

Volcano plots showing differentially expressed genes related to mitochondrial biogenesis and function, telomere replication and cellular senescence genes among non-smokers, smokers, and COPD subjects. Altered genes in comparisons between (A) old (smokers vs. non-smokers), (B) old (smokers vs. COPD), and (C) old (COPD vs. non-smokers). The genes differentially expressed in each comparison are indicated in green (increased) and red (decreased) colors. The green dotted horizontal line indicates the significance threshold of p-values from comparisons at P < 0.05. The Benjamini-Hochberg procedure was further used to adjust the p-values to control the false discovery rate at 5%.
