Abstract
⺠We evaluated polymorphisms in genes with antioxidant function and lung function phenotypes. ⺠Interactions between variants and cigarette smoking parameters were investigated. ⺠Without consideration of smoking, no variant was associated with lung function. ⺠Results highlight IDH3A, IDH3B, IDH2, and PRDX5 for further investigation.
