Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to investigate the myeloperoxidase (MPO) -463G>A polymorphism in Kawasaki disease (KD) patients, and the relationship between gene polymorphism and MPO levels. METHODS: A total of 334 KD children and 492 sex-matched controls were assayed for polymorphism analysis. TaqMan assays were used for genotyping. MPO was measured in 37 KD patients and 42 febrile controls....
