Deskripsi

Understanding regulation of genes associated to disease can reveal insights into disease mechanisms. Here, the authors perform an airway epithelial transcriptome-wide association analysis to elucidate genetic determinants of airway dysfunction in asthma, identifying genetic mechanisms of mucus pathobiology.
