Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Individual differences in susceptibility to developing asthma, a heterogeneous chronic inflammatory lung disease, are poorly understood. Whether genetics can predict asthma risk and how genetic variants modulate the complex pathophysiology of asthma are still debated. AIM: To build polygenic risk scores for asthma risk prediction and epigenomically link predictive genetic variants to...
