Multi-trait genetic analysis of asthma and eosinophils uncovers pleiotropic loci in East Asians
31 May 2025
Abstract excerpt
Asthma is a prevalent respiratory condition with over 100 genetic loci identified through genome-wide association studies (GWAS). However, the genetic basis of asthma in East Asians remains underexplored. To address this, we performed a comprehensive analysis of shared genetic mechanisms between asthma and white blood cell (WBC) traits in East Asians, aiming to identify potential pleiotropic loci. Using linkage...
