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

## Abstract Genomic regions with replicated linkage to asthmaβrelated phenotypes likely harbor multiple susceptibility loci with relatively minor effects on disease susceptibility. The 11q13 chromosomal region has repeatedly been linked to asthma with five genes residing in this region with reporte
## Abstract ## __Objective__ The __UCHLβ1__ gene is widely cited as a susceptibility factor for sporadic Parkinson's disease (PD). The strongest evidence comes from a metaβanalysis of small studies that reported the S18Y polymorphism as protective against PD, after pooling studies of white and Asi
