Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To examine whether genetic polymorphisms in the 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (ALOX5AP) confer an increased risk to angiographically proven coronary artery disease (CAD) in a case-control study of a Midwestern population in the US. METHODS: We genotyped 7 SNPs (SG13S25, SG13S89, SG13S41, SG13S377, SG13S35, SG13S114, and SG13S32) in the ALOX5AP gene in 500 angiographically proven coronary artery...
