Disease
ADA33_HUMAN Genetic variations in ADAM33 are associated with susceptibility to asthma (ASTHMA) [MIM:600807. The most common chronic disease affecting children and young adults. It is a complex genetic disorder with a heterogeneous phenotype, largely attributed to the interactions among many genes and between these genes and the environment. It is characterized by recurrent attacks of paroxysmal dyspnea, with weezing due to spasmodic contraction of the bronchi.[1] [2] [3]
