Another gene linked to our suggestive sites, STARD3 (cpg site: cg00264346), has previously been associated with cardiovascular disease, metabolic markers (e.g., HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein A1), asthma, and inflammatory markers (e.g., leukocyte or neutrophil count) (Sollis et al., 2023 Jan 6). This evidence concerns the gene STARD3 and asthma.
