For example, previous studies suggest that nAChRs can re-wire gene regulatory networks in lung cancer cell lines. However, the tissue specificity of nAChRs genes and their regulation remain unexplored. SN - 1471-2164 UR - https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-017-3813-4 DO - 10.1186/s12864-017-3813-4 ID - Zhang2017 ER -
