Genome-wide association study of lung function and clinical implication in heavy smokers.


ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:The aim of this study is to identify genetic loci associated with post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC and FEV1, and develop a multi-gene predictive model for lung function in COPD. METHODS:Genome-wide association study (GWAS) of post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC and FEV1 was performed in 1645 non-Hispanic White European descent smokers. RESULTS:A functional rare variant in SERPINA1 (rs28929474: Glu342Lys) was significantly associated with post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC (p?=?1.2?×?10-?8) and FEV1 (p?=?2.1?×?10-?9). In addition, this variant was associated with COPD (OR?=?2.3; p?=?7.8?×?10-?4) and severity (OR?=?4.1; p?=?0.0036). Heterozygous subjects (CT genotype) had significantly lower lung function and higher percentage of COPD and more severe COPD than subjects with the CC genotype. 8.6% of the variance of post-bronchodilator FEV1/FVC can be explained by SNPs in 10 genes with age, sex, and pack-years of cigarette smoking (P?
