METHODS OF DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT FOR ASTHMA, ALLERGIC RHINITIS AND OTHER RESPIRATORY DISEASES BASED ON HAPLOTYPE ASSOCIATION

摘要

Methods for diagnosis of asthma or allergic rhinitis or a susceptibility to asthma or allergic rhinitis based on detection of at-risk haplotypes associated with MAP3K9 are disclosed. Also methods for treatment of asthma or allergic rhinitis or a susceptibility to asthma or allergic rhinitis based on detection of at-risk haplotypes associated with MAP3K9 are disclosed. In particular, pathways targeting for treating individuals who are at-risk of developing asmtha or allergic rhinitis are described. In certain aspects, MLKl inhibitors are used in treatment methods.
