Novel<i>KITLG/SCF</i>regulatory variants are associated with lung function in African American children with asthma

2020-02-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Baseline lung function, quantified as forced expiratory volume in the first second of exhalation (FEV 1 ), is a standard diagnostic criterion used by clinicians to identify and classify lung diseases. Using whole genome sequencing data from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute TOPMed project, we identified a novel genetic association with FEV 1 on chromosome 12 in 867 African American ch...
