<i>ADAM33</i> gene polymorphisms at positions T+1 (rs2280091), T1 (rs3918396), S1 (rs2280089), and F+1 (rs511898) were examined in 150 patients with asthma and 149 age- and sex-matched healthy controls with a PCR-RFLP method.
As rs44707 and rs2787094 are associated with asthma and a distinctive palm pattern, the data suggest that ADAM33 polymorphisms are correlated with asthma and may be the underlying genetic basis of the association between asthma and palm dermatoglyphic patterns.

Association intensity of the polymorphisms with the disease risk was assessed by odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95%CI).The frequency of rs678881 GA genotype was obviously higher in cases than in controls (P = .03) and the carriage of this genotype conferred higher risk of asthma among children than GG genotype (OR = 2.03, 95%CI = 1.05-3.91).
Based on the results, five SNPs, rs44707 (codominant model, P=0.031; log‑additive model, P=0.0084), rs2787094 (overdominant model, P=0.049), rs678881 (codominant model, P=0.028; overdominant model, P=0.0083), rs677044 (codominant model, P=0.013; log‑additive model, P=0.0033) and rs512625 (dominant model, P=0.033), were associated with asthma in this population.

Differences in allele frequencies at the SNPs rs528557/S2, rs598418 and rs44707/ST+4 in asthmatics were statistically significant compared to controls.
In the ADEM study, the minor alleles of ADAM33 rs511898 and rs528557 and the ORMDL3/GSDMB rs7216389 polymorphisms were negatively associated, whereas the minor alleles of IL4 rs2243250 and rs2070874 polymorphisms were positively associated with childhood asthma.
In this study, we evaluated the associations between the V4 (rs2787094 G>C) polymorphism in a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain 33 (ADAM33) gene and asthma risk.
Multiple associations were observed for ADAM33: rs2280090 was associated with reduced MEF240% (i.e., the ratio of Mean Expiratory Flow after 240s of hypertonic saline inhalation with respect to the age- and ancestry-matched reference value) and with an increased risk of allergic bronchitis (p = 1.77*10(-4) and p = 7.94*10(-4), respectively); rs3918396 was associated with wheezing and eczema comorbidity (p = 3.41*10(-4)).
