The androgen receptor gene CAG polymorphism is associated with the severity of coronary artery disease in men

20 Nov 2003

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The role of androgens in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD) remains controversial. The length of the polyglutamine stretch of the transactivation domain (CAG repeat) of the androgen receptor (AR) inversely affects androgen activity. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of this polymorphism of the AR gene in the extent of CAD in male patients. DESIGN AND PATIENTS: The...
