Antioxidant gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to a rapid decline in lung function in smokersJian Qing He
UBC McDonald Research Laboratories iCAPTURE Center, St Paul s Hospital, 1081 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, V6Z 1Y6 Canada
Am J Respir Crit Care Med 166:323-8. 2002..20; p = 0.01). However, due to the multiple comparisons that were made, these associations may represent type 1 error. There was no association between HMOX1 (GT)n alleles and the rate of decline in lung function in smokers...
Association of Hck genetic polymorphisms with gene expression and COPDXiaozhu Zhang
James Hogg iCAPTURE Centre for Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Research, St Paul s Hospital, University of British Columbia, 1081 Burrard Street, Room 166, Vancouver, BC, Canada
Hum Genet 120:681-90. 2007..These data suggest that the insertion/deletion polymorphism could be a functional polymorphism of the Hck gene, may contribute to COPD pathogenesis and modify COPD-related phenotypes...

Tumour necrosis factor and lymphotoxin A polymorphisms and lung function in smokersG Tanaka
The James Hogg iCAPTURE Centre for Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Research, St Paul s Hospital, 1081 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC, V6Z 1Y6 Canada
Eur Respir J 29:34-41. 2007..In conclusion, these results support the findings of previous studies in late-onset chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in Caucasian populations...
Association of genetic variations in the CSF2 and CSF3 genes with lung function in smoking-induced COPDJ Q He
UBC James Hogg iCAPTURE Centre for Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Research, St Paul s Hospital, 1081 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, V6Z 1Y6
Eur Respir J 32:25-34. 2008..No association was found for CSF2 SNPs and lung function, nor was there evidence of epistasis. In conclusion, genetic variation in colony-stimulating factor 3 is associated with cross-sectionally measured lung function in smokers...
Associations of IL6 polymorphisms with lung function decline and COPDJ Q He
UBC James Hogg iCAPTURE Centre for Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Research, St Paul s Hospital, 1081 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada
Thorax 64:698-704. 2009..There is a functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), -174G/C, in the promoter region of IL6. It was hypothesised that IL6 SNPs influence susceptibility for impaired lung function and COPD in smokers...

Polymorphisms in the IL13, IL13RA1, and IL4RA genes and rate of decline in lung function in smokersJian Qing He
UBC McDonald Research Laboratories iCAPTURE Center, St Paul s Hospital, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol 28:379-85. 2003..Haplotypes consisting of alleles from the IL13 polymorphisms or from the IL4RA polymorphisms were not associated with rate of decline in lung function in smokers...
Glutathione S-transferase variants and their interaction with smoking on lung functionJian Qing He
The James Hogg iCAPTURE Centre for Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Research, St Paul s Hospital, 1081 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC V6Z 1Y6, Canada
Am J Respir Crit Care Med 170:388-94. 2004..49 (95% CI, 1.48-8.39, p = 0.005) in mild smokers (< or = 25 pack years). We conclude that GST genotypes are risk factors for rapid decline or low lung function in smokers with mild to moderate airflow obstruction...

University of British Columbia McDonald Research Laboratories iCAPTURE Center, St Paul s Hospital, 1081 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia V6Z 1Y6, Canada
Hum Mol Genet 11:569-76. 2002..0007). These data suggest that polymorphisms in the MMP1 and MMP12 genes, but not MMP9, are either causative factors in smoking-related lung injury or are in linkage disequilibrium with causative polymorphisms...
