A Genome-Wide Association Study of Cockroach Sensitization among African American Asthmatics

Methods A GWAS was performed using the Illumina HumanHap650Y BeadChip; 655,352 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped on 205 asthmatics with cockroach sensitization defined by a positive ST and/or specific IgE measurement (RAST) to either B.germanica or P. americana and 168 asthmatics...

Zusammenfassung:Methods A GWAS was performed using the Illumina HumanHap650Y BeadChip; 655,352 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped on 205 asthmatics with cockroach sensitization defined by a positive ST and/or specific IgE measurement (RAST) to either B.germanica or P. americana and 168 asthmatics without cockroach sensitization.
