Abstract excerpt
Plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1) has been shown to be an independent risk factor for coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and cerebrovascular events. Previous studies on variations in plasma PAI-1 levels and associations between PAI-1 levels and PAI-1 genotypes have suggested that PAI-1 expression maybe regulated in a genotype-specific manner by insulin, hypertriglyceridemic very...
