Two chromosomal regions reached genome-wide significance level for childhood asthma symptoms: the 14q11 region flanking the DAD1 and OXA1L genes (rs1999071, MAF 0.32, OR 1.78, 95% CI 1.45-2.18, p-value 2.83 × 10(-8)) and 15q22 region flanking the FOXB1 gene (rs10519031, MAF 0.04, OR 3.0, 95% CI 2.02-4.49, p-value 6.68 × 10(-8) and rs8029377, MAF 0.03, OR 2.49, 95% CI 1.76-3.53, p-value 2.45 × 10(-7)). eQTL analysis suggests that rs1999071 regulates the expression of OXA1L gene.
