Abstract excerpt
We analyzed the evolution with age of the frequencies of the I/D polymorphism of the angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE), a1166c of the angiotensin II AT1 receptor (AT1R), M235T of the angiotensinogen (AGT) and A225V of their methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene in a healthy (H) population and the subsequent comparison to age- and sex-matched groups of myocardial infarction (MI) subjects. A total of...
