Abstract excerpt
The role of an advanced glycation end product/receptor for advanced glycation end product (AGE/RAGE) system in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD) is not fully understood. To clarify whether polymorphisms of the RAGE gene were related to CAD, we performed a case-control study in Chinese Han patients. The allele frequencies and genotype distribution combinations of the -429T/C, 1704G/T and G82S...
