Although the genetic basis of ALI has not been fully established an increasing body of evidence suggests that genetic predisposition contributes to disease susceptibility and severity. Significant difficulty exists however in defining the exact nature of these genetic factors including large phenotypic variance incomplete penetrance complex gene-environment interactions and strong potential for locus heterogeneity. We utilized the candidate gene approach and an ortholog gene database to provide relevant gene ontologies and insights into the genetic basis of ALI. We employed a Medline search of selected basic and clinical studies in the English literature and studies sponsored by the HopGene National Institutes of Health sponsored Program in Genomic Applications. Extensive gene expression profiling studies in animal models of ALI rat murine canine as well as in .
