OBJECTIVE: 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid has been shown to play an important role in cerebral vascular function. We hypothesized that polymorphisms in genes encoding 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid synthesizing enzymes might confer susceptibility to stroke. METHODS AND RESULTS: To test the hypothesis, haplotype tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms and potential functional polymorphisms of CYP4A11 and CYP4F2...
