Abstract excerpt
The association of moderately elevated total homocysteine (tHcy) levels with coronary artery disease is increasingly being recognized. However, the role of genetic influence on plasma tHcy levels is not completely understood. We studied 1,055 individuals with respect to the effect of two silent polymorphisms, the 699C--> T and the 1080C-->T, of the cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) gene on plasma tHcy levels....
