Abstract excerpt
The human ubiquitin protein ligase E3C (UBE3C) regulates airway inflammatory responses and is hypothesized to be associated with the presence of nasal polyps in asthma-related diseases. A total of 24 UBE3C single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped in a 467 Korean asthma cohort that was stratified into more homogenous phenotypes of 114 aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease subgroup and 353...
