A genome-wide cross trait analysis from UK Biobank highlights the shared genetic architecture of asthma and allergic diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 29785011
ABSTRACT: Clinical and epidemiological data suggest that asthma and allergic diseases are associated and may share a common genetic etiology. We analyzed genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data for asthma and allergic diseases in 33,593 cases and 76,768 controls of European ancestry from the UK Biobank. Two publicly available independent genome wide association studies (GWAS) were used for replication. We have found a strong genome-wide genetic correlation between asthma and allergic diseases (rg = 0.75, P = 6.84×10−62). Cross trait analysis identified 38 genome-wide significant loci, including 7 novel shared loci. Computational analysis showed that shared genetic loci are enriched in immune/inflammatory systems and tissues with epithelium cells. Our work identifies common

Asthma and allergic disease symptoms Moderate
KIF3A rs10074523 variant affects ciliary function in respiratory epithelium, potentially impairing airway clearance and increasing asthma/allergy susceptibility.
Monitor for respiratory symptoms and allergic manifestations; discuss screening with healthcare provider.
