Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role of genetic variants within the coagulation factor II receptor (F2R) in the occurrence of coronary heart disease (CHD). METHODS AND RESULTS: Four SNPs (-1738 G/A, 2860 G/A, 2930 T/C, and 9113 C/A) and an ins/del polymorphism -506-/GGCCGCGGGAAGC (D/I), replicating a consensus sequence for Ets-1 transcription factor, and their related haplotypes were...
