Gene expression of oxidative stress markers and lung function: A CARDIA lung study

Background Circulating markers of oxidative stress have been associated with lower lung function. Our objective was to study the association of gene expression levels of oxidative stress pathway genes ( ALOX12 , ALOX15 , ARG2 , GSTT1 , LPO , MPO , NDUFB3 , PLA2G7 , and SOD3) and lung function forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV 1 ), forced vital capacity (FVC) in Coronary Artery Risk Development in Young Adults study.
