GWAS reveals Genetic Susceptibility to Air Pollution-Related Asthma Exacerbations in Children of African Ancestry

2024-05-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> The relationship between ambient air pollution (AAP) exposure and asthma exacerbations is well-established. However, mitigation efforts have yielded mixed results, potentially due to genetic variability in the response to AAP. We hypothesize that common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are linked to AAP sensitivity and test this through a Genome Wide Association Study (GWAS). <h4>Methods<...
