The gene encoding interleukin-13: a susceptibility locus for asthma and related traits.

abstract：BACKBROUND:COPD is a common, highly debilitating disease of the airways, primarily caused by smoking. Chronic inflammation and structural remodelling are key pathological features of this disease caused, in part, by the aberrant function of airway smooth muscle (ASM). We have previously demonstrated that hydrogen sulfi...
