AbstractGenome-wide studies (GWAS) on asthma have identified nearly 200 genomic loci. However, the underlying mechanisms remain mostly elusive. While functional profiling of blood immune cell types has helped interpret asthma GWAS signals, high-resolution functional genomic data of lung immune cells, which differ from circulating immune cells, are lacking. We thus profiled single-cell multi-omics (RNA-seq and ATAC-seq) on lymphocytes of lung and spleen tissues from 9 donors. Cross-tissue compari...
