Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SPN) of Tbx20 gene and congenital atrial septal defects (ASD) in the Xinjiang Han population. METHODS: A total of 214 ASD patients and 382 controls were included in the present study. Two SNPs (rs17675131, rs4720169) in Tbx20 gene were genotyped by TaqMan SNP genotyping method. RESULTS: The distribution of the rs17675131 of Tbx20...
