Exposure to particulate matter with diameter ?2.5??m (PM2.5) is associated with an elevated risk of adverse health effects and cooking is a primary source of PM2.5 in non-smoking households. Therefore, it is important to investigate PM2.5 concentrati... Read More about Setting the standard: The acceptability of kitchen ventilation for the English housing stock.

Exposure to lippolysaccharide (LPS) reduces contractile response of small airways from GSTCD+ mice (2019)

Introduction: Genome-Wide Association Studies suggest glutathione S transferase C terminal domain (GSTCD) may play a role in development of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. We aimed to define the potential role of GSTCD in airway inflammation a... Read More about Exposure to lippolysaccharide (LPS) reduces contractile response of small airways from GSTCD+ mice.

Defining a role for lung function associated gene GSTCD in cell homeostasis (2019)
Journal Article

Genome wide association (GWA) studies have reproducibly identified signals on chromosome 4q24 associated with lung function and COPD. GSTCD (Glutathione S-transferase C-terminal domain containing) represents a candidate causal gene in this locus, how...
