Genetics and epidemiology: asthma and infection.

Current opinion in allergy and clinical immunology - 1 Oct 2009

Bartlett Nathan W, McLean Gary R, Chang Yoon-Seok, Johnston Sebastian L

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: This review will consider how recent epidemiological studies have helped reveal the role of respiratory infection in asthma inception early in life. We will also review the importance of respiratory infections and exacerbations of asthma and will discuss genetic factors controlling host immune responses to respiratory infection and the influence these may exert on asthma pathogenesis.
