Asthma is a complex, chronic respiratory disease with a wide clinical spectrum. Use of high-throughput technologies has generated a great deal of data that require validation. In this work the objective was to validate molecular biomarkers related to asthmatic disease types in peripheral blood samples and define their relationship with disease severity. With this purpose, ninety-four previously described genes were analyzed by qRT-PCR in 30 healthy control (HC) subjects, 30 patients with nonallergic asthma (NA), 30 with allergic asthma (AA), and 14 patients with,allergy (rhinitis) but without asthma (AR). RNA was extracted from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) using the TRIzol method. After data normalization, principal component analysis (PCA) was performed, and multiple approaches were used to test for differential gene expression. Relevance was defined by RQ (relative quantification) and corrected P value (
