Rs37972 and rs37973 single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the glucocorticoid-inducible 1 gene are not associated with asthma risk in a Saudi Arabian population

Abstract: The minor alleles "T" and "G" of rs37972 and rs37973 SNPs, respectively, were not significantly associated with increased asthma risk in asthma patients from Saudi Arabia.

“…In a Saudi Arabian study, 2 GLCCI1 SNPs, (rs37972 and rs37973), were found to be unrelated to adult asthma susceptibility [21]. Similarly, we found GLCCI1 rs37969, rs37972, and rs37973 polymorphisms were all irrelevant to the risk of childhood asthma in the current study.…”

“…However, a non-Hispanic white study discovered that rs37973 was not associated with the change in FEV1 after treatment with ICS [24]. Negative results were showed in a Saudi Arabian study and a recent GWAS study [21,25]. Most of the above studies were conducted on adult asthma.…”

“…A few reports have described the genetic predisposition to asthma on the Arabian Peninsula (Table 3). Polymorphisms in the high-affinity IgE receptor (FcεRIβ) in the Kuwaiti population and in IL-13, STAT-6, and the IL-4 receptor alpha subunit (IL-4Rα) in the Saudi population were associated with an increased risk of developing asthma [17][18][19][20][21][22]. In an evaluation of genetic disposition to food allergy in the UAE, Al-Hammadi et al [11] found that children with fewer siblings and with a family history of food allergy were more likely to have food allergy themselves.…”
