Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1; gene name CCL2) has been suggested to play an important role in the initiation of atherosclerosis by recruiting monocytes to sites of injured endothelium. Recently, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the MCP-1 regulatory region have been identified. Controversial results regarding the association of the -2518G/A polymorphism of the MCP-1 gene with...
