Best Answer: The biggest reason was that Britain started the Industrial Revolution earlier than other countries. Because they had newer technology, they could sell it to other countries to make money, and also use it to conquer other places.
1 Atopic dermatitis (AD) with Filaggrin (FLG) mutations is associated with an increased SC IL-1 cytokine profile; this profile is also seen in a murine homologue of filaggrin deficiency. 2  FLG mutations increase the risk for persistent dry skin, persistent eczema, and AE and non-AE at age 8 years. Loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding FLG are linked with IV in Northern European and Japanese populations and results here demonstrate that FLG mutations are also associated with IV in a Bangladeshi population.
Cystic fibrosis: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an autosomal recessive disorder that is the most common lethal genetic disease among Caucasians, with an incidence of about 1 in 3200 newborns in the U.S. CF is caused by mutation of the gene encoding the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR).espite this persistent and exuberant inflammatory response, P. aeruginosa infection persists in the CF airway, in part due to a series of adaptive bacterial changes that are not yet well defined. Adaptation of P. aeruginosa to the airway is important for cystic fibrosis lung disease.
