Single effects of apolipoprotein B, (a), and E polymorphisms and interaction between plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 and apolipoprotein(a) genotypes and the risk of coronary artery disease in Czech male caucasians.

Abstract excerpt

To evaluate whether polymorphisms in genes whose products are involved in lipid metabolism and fibrinolysis alter the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD), allele frequencies of four genetic polymorphisms were ascertained by PCR-based methods in 175 Czech male patients with coronary artery disease and in 222 Czech men with no symptoms of CAD. The following polymorphisms were studied: apolipoprotein B (apo B)...
