Definition of abbreviations: DHS = DNase I hypersensitive site; eQTL = expression quantitative trait loci; GWAS = genome-wide association study.

Emphysema distribution–associated GWAS eQTL loci in lung, blood, and lymphoblastoid cell lines are loci with SNPs that have emphysema distribution–associated GWAS P values less than 5 × 10−5 and cis-eQTL colocalization probability less than or equal to 0.8 in lung, blood, and lymphoblastoid cell lines. Loci are defined by the regions bounded by common SNPs in linkage disequilibrium with the lead SNP at r2 > 0.8. Lead SNPs are SNPs with the lowest GWAS P values for association in a given GWAS-identified region.
