Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptor Variants Are Related to Smoking Habits, but Not Directly to COPD
Genome-wide association studies identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) cluster as a risk factor for nicotine dependency and COPD. We investigated whether SNPs in the nAChR cluster are associated with smoking habits and lung function declin...
