Asthma patients carrying the G allele at −1508A>G had significantly higher serum levels of periostin, myeloperoxidase, and urinary levels of 15-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid and sphingosine-1-phosphate (P = 0.016, P = 0.027, P = 0.032, and P = 0.010, resp). This evidence concerns the gene MPO and asthma.
