Genome-Wide and Follow-Up Studies Identify CEP68 Gene Variants Associated with Risk of Aspirin-Intolerant Asthma

Abstract: Aspirin-intolerant asthma (AIA) is a rare condition that is characterized by the development of bronchoconstriction in asthmatic patients after ingestion of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs including aspirin. However, the underlying mechanisms of AIA occurrence are still not fully understood. To identify the genetic variations associated with aspirin intolerance in asthmatics, the first stage of genome-wide association study with 109,365 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) was undertaken in a Korean AI… Show more

“…The authors found an intriguing association between the decline in FEV 1 and a nonsynonymous polymorphism (rs7572857, Gly74Ser) in centrosomal protein of 68 Kd (CEP68) [123], a gene involved in centrosomal cohesion and epidermal growth factor signaling [124,125]. Our group evaluated 53 common SNPs in this gene in a population of Spanish patients presenting NIUA, NERD, and blended reactions [126].…”

“…A recent genomewide association study highlighted the influence of the CEP68 (centrosomal protein of 68 KDa) gene on susceptibility to aspirin intolerance in asthmatics from Taiwan (62). A Spanish case-control study assessed the role of this locus in NAR to NSAIDs by examining 53 common gene variants in a total of 635 patients with NIUA (n = 399), NERD (n = 110) or blended pattern (n = 126), compared to 425 controls.…”
