Candidate biomarkers were identified using the support vector machine recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE) analysis and the LASSO regression model. The discriminatory ability was determined using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) values. These candidate biomarkers were characterized in the GSE106986 dataset (14 COPD patients and 5 controls) in terms of their respective diagnostic values and expression levels. The CIBERSORT program was used to estimate patterns of tissue infiltration of 22 types of immune cells. Furthermore, the in vivo and in vitro model of COPD was established using cigarette smoke extract (CSE) to validated the bioinformatics results.\nResults: 80 genes were identified via DEG analysis that were primarily involved in cellular amino acid and metabolic processes, regulation of telomerase activity and phagocytosis, antigen processing and MHC class I-mediated peptide antigen presentation, and other biological processes. LASSO and SVM-RFE were used to further characterize the candidate diagnostic markers for COPD, SLC27A3, and STAU1. SLC27A3 and STAU1 were found to be diagnostic markers of COPD in the metadata cohort (AUC=0.734, AUC=0.745). Their relevance in COPD were validated in the GSE106986 dataset (AUC=0.900 AUC=0.971). Subsequent analysis of immune cell infiltration discovered an association between SLC27A3 and STAU1 with resting NK cells, plasma cells, eosinophils, activated mast cells, memory B cells, CD8+, CD4+, and helper follicular T-cells. The expressions of SLC27A3 and STAU1 were upregulated in COPD models both in vivo and in vitro. Immune infiltration activation was observed in COPD models, accompanied by the enhanced expression of SLC27A3 and STAU1. Whereas, the knockdown of SLC27A3 or STAU1 attenuated the effect of CSE on BEAS-2B cells.\nConclusion: STUA1 and SLC27A3 are valuable diagnostic biomarkers of COPD. COPD pathogenesis is heavily influenced by patterns of immune cell infiltration.
