Association between baseline levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and a dinucleotide repeat polymorphism in the intron of the CRP gene.

Abstract excerpt

Elevation of baseline C-reactive protein (CRP) is associated with increased risk of cardiac disease. This increase might reflect low-grade inflammation, but differences in CRP serum levels might also have a genetic component. To test this possibility, we investigated whether a polymorphic GT-repeat in the intron of the CRP gene contributes to variation in baseline CRP. We found that the polymorphism was...
