Abstract excerpt
A protein capable of activating 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX5AP) is considered a presumable risk factor of acute stroke development. Polymorphic variants of the ALOX5AP gene were examined. Two ALOX5AP gene polymorphisms (SG13S114 (rs10507391) and SG13S32 (rs9551963)), which previously had shown association with the risk of ischemic stroke in other populations, were studied. These single nucleotide polymorphisms were...
