Genetic Risk in Asthma Mediated by Gene Expression Changes in Airway Cells - Technology Networks

A transcriptome-wide study of the airway has shown that the gene expression pattern in airway epithelial cells mediates the genetic risk of asthma.

A significant amount of genetic risk for asthma is likely mediated through altered gene expression within the airway epithelium. That is the conclusion of a National Jewish Health-led study to identi… [+3752 chars]
