The nasal methylome as a biomarker of asthma and airway inflammation in children
Epigenetic differences in nasal epithelium have been proposed as a biomarker for lower airway disease and asthma. Here, in epigenome-wide association studies for asthma and other airway traits using nasal swabs, the authors identify differentially methylated CpGs that highlight genes involved in TH2...
