BACKGROUND: Two recent large meta-analyses of genome-wide association studies of
lung function in general populations of European descent identified 11 candidate
genes/regions. The importance of these genes in lung function in white and African
American subjects with asthma is unknown. OBJECTIVES: To determine whether genes that
regulate lung function in general populations are associated with lung function
abnormalities in subjects with asthma from different racial groups. METHODS: Single …
