Abstract

Rhinologic diseases have a very high prevalence worldwide. It is known now that many rhinologic diseases have a strong genetic background. Some formidable challenges still remain for these diseases. However, research in the field of genetics has made much progress over the last decade and is expected to advance even further in the near future, as increasingly powerful analytical tools are being developed to unlock the complexities of genetic diseases. Information on the genetics of allergic diseases is important not only for analyzing the molecular basis of these diseases but also for investigating new drugs. Today, there is a huge effort to understand the molecular basis of disease and to find new therapies.
