Abstract excerpt
Sequence variants of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D), angiotensinogen (AGT) T235M, angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) A1166C, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) 4G/5G were analyzed to see their genetic associations with vascular dementia as its candidate genetic risk factors involving renin-angiotensin and fibrin systems. While the ACE I/D, AT1R A1166C, and PAI-1 4G/5G...
