Genome-wide association study identifies the SERPINB gene cluster as a susceptibility locus for food allergy

Food allergy is an increasing public health problem. In a genome-wide scan of children diagnosed by oral food challenge, Marenholz et al. find new genetic associations underlying food allergy, implicating the immune system and the epithelial barrier.
