Genes encoding fibrinogen and cardiovascular risk.

Hypertension (Dallas, Tex. : 1979) - 1 Nov 2001

Iacoviello L, Vischetti M, Zito F, Benedetta Donati M

Abstract excerpt

The role of fibrinogen in cardiovascular disease has been extensively studied, and meta-analyses have definitively confirmed that high levels of fibrinogen are associated with an increased risk of the disease. In recent years, several polymorphisms have been identified in the fibrinogen chain genes that contribute to determine the levels of fibrinogen in the general population. The fibrinogen beta-chain gene has...
