Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes on chromosome 17q12-q21 are associated with childhood-onset asthma and rhinovirus-induced wheeze. There are few mechanistic data linking chromosome 17q12-q21 to wheezing illness. OBJECTIVE: We investigated whether 17q12-q21 risk alleles were associated with impaired interferon responses to rhinovirus. METHODS: In a population-based birth cohort of...
