Abstract

Summary of the research findings

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder with a strong genetic inheritance. Although more than 100 loci were reported through the genome-wide association study of European populations, the genetic underpinning of asthma in African American individuals remains largely elusive.

2,638 African American cases, 1,544 African American controls
