After several years of research to find asthma-susceptibility genes using genome-wide linkage scans and refined genetic mapping methods, four highly interesting candidate genes have recently been reported. Each of these genes represents a different functional class, and might point to a new pathway

The impact of genetic factors on the pathogenesis of allergy and asthma is currently an area of intense investigation. Although epidemiological studies find more and more genes that are likely to contribute to allergic inflammation, functional studies of the mechanisms that link genetic variation wi
