HLA class II alleles
asthma (prob atopic)
-linked to prod IgE abs

asthma (prob atopic)
-leads to bronchial smooth m. and fibroblast proliferation
Loss of TP53 (17p)

asthma (prob atopic)
=increased levels of this chitinase-like glycoprotein is directly correlated with dz severity, airway remodeling, and decreased pulmonary function
