Lack of Association Between the TGF-β1 Gene and Development of COPD in Asians: A Case–Control Study and Meta-analysis
Meta-analysisN=4,116Yi Gong et al.(2011)· Lung

A case-control study of 160 COPD patients and 177 controls in Chinese subjects combined with a meta-analysis of 1508 COPD patients and 2608 controls found no significant association between TGFβ1 gene polymorphisms (rs1800469: OR=0.84, 95% CI 0.66-1.07; rs1982073: OR=1.06, 95% CI 0.70-1.60) and COPD risk in Asian populations, though ethnic subgroup analysis suggested possible associations in Caucasians.

About B9D2

This gene encodes a B9 domain protein, which are exclusively found in ciliated organisms. The gene is upregulated during mucociliary differentiation, and the encoded protein localizes to basal bodies and cilia. Disrupting expression of this gene results in ciliogenesis defects.
