Abstract excerpt
Polymorphism at the 17q21 gene locus and wheezing responses to rhinovirus (RV) early in childhood conspire to increase the risk of developing asthma. However, the mechanisms mediating this gene-environment interaction remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the impact of one of the 17q21-encoded genes, ORMDL3 (orosomucoid-like 3), on RV replication in human epithelial cells. ORMDL3 knockdown inhibited...
