Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Genetic control of gene expression in asthma-related tissues is not well characterized, particularly for African-ancestry populations, limiting advancement in our understanding of the increased prevalence and severity of asthma in these populations. OBJECTIVE: We sought to create novel transcriptome prediction models for asthma tissues (nasal epithelium and CD4+ T cells) and apply them in a...
