Genome-wide gene-air pollution interaction analysis of lung function in 300,000 individuals
16 Dec 2021
Abstract excerpt
Impaired lung function is predictive of mortality and is a key component of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Lung function has a strong genetic component but is also affected by environmental factors such as increased exposure to air pollution, but the effect of their interactions is not well understood. To identify interactions between genetic variants and air pollution measures which affect COPD risk and...
