Genetics of atherosclerosis.

Annual review of genomics and human genetics - 1 Jan 2004

Lusis Aldons J, Mar Rebecca, Pajukanta Paivi

Abstract excerpt

Atherosclerosis, the primary cause of coronary artery disease (CAD) and stroke, is a disorder with multiple genetic and environmental contributions. Genetic-epidemiologic studies have identified a surprisingly long list of genetic and nongenetic risk factors for CAD. However, such studies indicate that family history is the most significant independent risk factor (15, 52, 77). Many Mendelian disorders associated...
