POLYMORPHISM OF THE GENE OF β2-ADRENERGIC RECEPTOR AND EFFICIENCY OF THE BRONCHOLYTIC THERAPY AMONG CHILDREN WITH BRONCHIAL ASTHMA by O.N. Bryantseva, E.E. Tikhomirov, N.V. Zhurkova, N.I. Voznesenskaya, G.M. Bayazutdinova, N.S. Aver'yanova, I.I. Balabolkin, V.G. Pinelis

“…The researchers singled out statistically significant differences of the genotype distribution. the gly/gly16 homozygous allele was discovered twice as often in the group with an insufficient response to β2-agonists agonists than in the group with a good response (66 v. 38%, р < 0,001), while in the distribution of the heterozygous allele the researchers uncovered the inverse pattern (55 v. 28%, р < 0,001). In the arg/arg16 genotype distribution, there were no considerable differences in both groups (6% in each group). …”
