Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The pathogenetic mechanism of premature myocardial infarction (MI) remains unknown. We explored the association of homocysteine and its main genetic modulator methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) 677C->T polymorphism with the development of MI <or=35 years of age. METHODS: We performed a case-control study of 147 patients with a first MI <or=35 years and 103 age and sex-matched controls. We...
