Abstract Background and Objective Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive inflammatory condition with limited non-invasive biomarkers for diagnosis and monitoring. Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs), due to their involvement in inflammation, oxidative stress, and tissue remodeling, offer potential as molecular biomarkers. This study aimed to compare the expression of miR-155, miR-17, and miR-181 in COPD patients versus healthy individuals to assess their diagnostic value. Metho
