In the Learning Early About Peanut Allergy (LEAP) study, participants in the peanut consumption group, at 60 months of age, had higher levels of peanut-specific IgG4 (psIgG4), a biomarker of immune modulation, compared to those in the peanut-avoidance group. We investigated the genetic determinants of psIgG4 among participants who consumed peanuts. Using whole-genome sequencing data, we performed a genome-wide...
