Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The study of gene-environment interactions enables us to further understand the pathogenesis of asthma and inflammation. The TNF-α gene has been associated with airway pathology in asthma but there is limited information in relation to pollutant exposure and the TNF-α 308G/A polymorphism. OBJECTIVE: To determine the risk conferred by the TNF-α 308(G/A) polymorphism on respiratory outcome and to...
