Genetic susceptibility to the respiratory effects of air pollution.

Thorax - 1 Jun 2008

Yang I A, Fong K M, Zimmerman P V, Holgate S T, Holloway J W

Abstract excerpt

There is large variation between individuals in their response to air pollutants. This review summarises the existing evidence that genetic factors influence the mechanisms of lung injury caused by air pollutants. Genetic association studies have compared the adverse effects of air pollutants between subjects with specific genotypes in biologically relevant genes. In human studies of ozone exposure, polymorphisms...
