Abstract excerpt
The PTGDR gene has been suggested to be an asthma susceptibility gene in previous genome-wide linkage studies as well as in functional studies in a mouse model of asthma. Recently, promoter polymorphisms of the PTGDR gene have been reported to be associated with asthma in American and European populations. In order to determine the association of PTGDR promoter polymorphisms and asthma susceptibility in a Chinese...
