A Long Noncoding RNA “lnc”ed to Asthma Genetics | American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) over the past 15 years have overwhelmingly established asthma as a genetic disease by identifying numerous variants, including SNPs, in multiple genomic loci that are associated with asthma. These association studies, however, do not establish causal relationships between the variants and asthma and thus cannot tell us how the genetic variants contribute to…
