Abstract excerpt
Human genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified more than 270 loci associated with pulmonary function; however, follow-up studies to determine causal genes at these loci are few. SNPs in low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) are associated with human pulmonary function in GWASs. Using murine models, we investigated the effect of genetic disruption of the Lrp1 gene in smooth...
