Genetically distinct clinical subsets, and associations with asthma and eosinophil abundance, within Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis

2018-12-10

Abstract excerpt

Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA: formerly Churg-Strauss syndrome) is a rare inflammatory disease of unknown cause. 30% of patients have anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies (ANCA) specific for myeloperoxidase (MPO). We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of EGPA, testing 7.5 million genetic variants in 684 cases and 6,838 controls. Case-control analyses were performed for EGPA as a...
