Geographic differences in allele frequencies of susceptibility SNPs for cardiovascular disease.

BMC medical genetics - 20 Apr 2011

Ding Keyue, Kullo Iftikhar J

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: We hypothesized that the frequencies of risk alleles of SNPs mediating susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases differ among populations of varying geographic origin and that population-specific selection has operated on some of these variants. METHODS: From the database of genome-wide association studies (GWAS), we selected 36 cardiovascular phenotypes including coronary heart disease, hypertension,...
