An interactive association of advanced glycation end-product receptor gene four common polymorphisms with coronary artery disease in northeastern Han Chinese.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Growing evidence indicates that advanced glycation end-product receptor (RAGE) might play a contributory role in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). To shed some light from a genetic perspective, we sought to investigate the interactive association of RAGE gene four common polymorphisms (rs1800625 or T-429C, rs1800624 or T-374A, rs2070600 or Gly82Ser, and rs184003 or G1704A) with the...
