Abstract excerpt

Visfatin, a newly identified proinflammatory adipokine, has been linked to coronary artery disease (CAD). The -1535C>T polymorphism (rs61330082) located in the visfatin gene promoter is reportedly associated with proinflammatory status. However, it is unclear whether this polymorphism correlates with plasma levels of inflammatory markers including visfatin, hs-CRP, IL-6 and TNF-α in CAD patients. The present...
