Abstract excerpt
In order to investigate possible ethnic differences in genetic and environmental determinants, we investigated several cardiovascular disease-associated genetic variations in successful ageing populations of France (Nancy) and China (Hong Kong). Allelic frequencies of these genetic variations were compared between healthy elderly Chinese (n=103) and French populations (n=100). A multi-locus assay was used to...
