We identified eight eGenes whose eQTL colocalized with GWAS signals for pulmonary diseases, of which three, HLA-B, HLA-DQA1 and HLA-DQB1, had been previously associated with Asthma in GWAS (Kontakioti et al., 2014; Li et al., 2012; Mahdi et al., 2018) and in the UK Biobank (Vicente et al., 2017). The gene discussed is HLA-B; the disease is lung disorder.
