Supporting evidence was found for previously reported SNP associations in or near CRP, NUAK1, SELL, VNN2, and CHST3. We also found a novel association in the ABC-transporter gene ABCA3. Further replications, GWASs of larger sample sizes, and meta-analyses are required to unravel genetics of BPD. Here, VNN2 is linked to bronchopulmonary dysplasia.
