Asthma
0.200 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE We have recently shown that null mutations in the filaggrin gene (FLG) are an important predisposing factor for childhood eczema and eczema-associated asthma, but persistence to adulthood has not been analyzed. 16990802 2007

Asthma
0.200 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE In fact, the exposure to environmental factors during early childhood may induce a long-lasting altered genetic state adapting to a persistent "Th2 state" thus influencing the development of asthma or atopic dermatitis and food allergy if alterations involve the filaggrin gene. 23809342 2013
