Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: High incidence of genetic alterations at the microsatellite (MS) DNA level has been reported in asthmatic adults. WORKING HYPOTHESIS: The aim of this study was to investigate whether microsatellite instability (MSI) and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) were detectable phenomena in children with asthma. METHODOLOGY: DNA was extracted from sputum and blood cells of 27 children (10.8 +/- 2.5 years) with mild...
