Nephronectin and the genetics of lung function variability

Genetic variation at the chromosome 4 locus containing the gene nephronectin (NPNT) is strongly associated with both lung function variability and the risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in genome wide association studies (GWAS). NPNT is a conserved extracellular matrix p...
