Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: There is evidence suggesting that genetic variants in the chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan2 (CSPG2, also known as versican) gene are involved in the pathogenesis of intracranial aneurysms (IAs). Some authors have demonstrated that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs173686 and rs251124 in the promoter region of the CSPG2 gene are associated with IAs. We performed a case-control study to...
