Genome-wide association study of chronic sputum production implicates loci involved in mucus production and infection (2022)
Preprint / Working Paper
Packer, R., Shrine, N., Hall, R., Melbourne, C., Thompson, R., Williams, A., …Wain, L. Genome-wide association study of chronic sputum production implicates loci involved in mucus production and infection

Background Chronic sputum production impacts on quality of life and is a feature of many respiratory diseases. Identification of the genetic variants associated with chronic sputum production in a disease agnostic sample could improve understanding o...

Rationale Eosinophils are associated with airway inflammation in respiratory disease. Eosinophil production and survival is controlled partly by interleukin-5: anti-interleukin-5 agents reduce asthma and response correlates with baseline eosinophil c...

Genetic Associations and Architecture of Asthma-COPD Overlap (2022)
Journal Article
John, C., Guyatt, A. L., Shrine, N., Packer, R., Olafsdottir, T. A., Liu, J., …Tobin, M. D. (2022). Genetic Associations and Architecture of Asthma-COPD Overlap. Chest, 161(5), 1155-1166. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chest.2021.12.674

Background Some people have characteristics of both asthma and COPD (asthma-COPD overlap), and evidence suggests they experience worse outcomes than those with either condition alone. Research Question What is the genetic architecture of asthma-CO... Read More about Genetic Associations and Architecture of Asthma-COPD Overlap.
