The genes and SNPs in the top 1% of regions were also shown to map to immune system pathways such as “Jak-STAT signaling pathway” and “Cytokine–cytokine receptor interaction;” common diseases such as “Prostate cancer,” “Endometrial cancer,” “Renal cell carcinoma,” and “Basal cell carcinoma;” immune-system-related diseases such as “Asthma” and “Inflammatory bowel disease;” and infectious diseases such as “Epstein–Barr virus infection.” These diseases vary in incidence rates among populations. Here, SOAT1 is linked to asthma.
