Abstract excerpt
Chemokines regulates the trafficking of leukocytes to the site of inflammation hence may be implicated in cardiac events. Currently no consistent effects have been revealed their role in acute myocardial infarction (MI). The aim of current study was to investigate the impact of human chemokine receptor genetic variants, CCR5-Δ32 insertion/deletion, CCR5-59029-A/G, CX3CR1-V249I and CX3CR1-T280 M on acute MI. 230...
