AB - BackgroundGenome-wide association studies have identified novel genetic associations for asthma, butwithout taking into account the role of active tobacco smoking. This study aimed to identifynovel genes that interact with ever active tobacco smoking in adult onset asthma.MethodsWe performed a genome-wide interaction analysis in six studies participating in theGABRIEL consortium following two meta-analyses approaches based on 1) the overall interaction effect and 2) the genetic effect in subjects with and without smoking exposure.We performed a discovery meta-analysis including 4,057 subjects of European descent andreplicated our findings in an independent cohort (LifeLines Cohort Study), including 12,475subjects.ResultsFirst approach: 50 SNPs were selected based on an overall interaction effect at p<10−4. Themost pronounced interaction effect was observed for rs9969775 on chromosome 9 (discoverymeta-analysis: ORint = 0.50, p = 7.6310−5, replication: ORint = 0.65, p = 0.02). Secondapproach: 35 SNPs were selected based on the overall genetic effect in exposed subjects(p <10−4). The most pronounced genetic effect was observed for rs5011804 on chromosome12 (discovery meta-analysis ORint = 1.50, p = 1.2110−4; replication: ORint = 1.40,p = 0.03).ConclusionsUsing two genome-wide interaction approaches, we identified novel polymorphisms in nonannotatedintergenic regions on chromosomes 9 and 12, that showed suggestive evidencefor interaction with active tobacco smoking in the onset of adult asthma.
