A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease 33 polymorphisms and lung function decline in the general population

ADAM33 (A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease 33) has been identified as a susceptibility gene for asthma and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in this gene have been associated with excess decline of lung function in asthmatics. To assess whether SNPs in ADAM33 are associated with accelerated lung...
