Genome-wide association analysis of 350,000 Caucasians from the UK Biobank identifies novel loci for asthma, hay fever and eczema

2017-09-29

Abstract excerpt

Even though heritability estimates suggest that the risk of asthma, hay fever and eczema is largely due to genetic factors, previous studies have not explained a large part of the genetics behind these diseases. In this GWA study, we include 346,545 Caucasians from the UK Biobank to identify novel loci for asthma, hay fever and eczema. We further investigate if associated lead SNPs have a significantly larger effe...
