Abstract excerpt
No coding sequence variants of the ALOX5AP gene that lead to amino acid substitutions have been identified. A two-stage study design was used to explore the relationship between variants in the transcriptional regulatory region of ALOX5AP gene and ischemic stroke (IS) risk in Chinese populations. IS was determined using CT and/or MRI. First, 18 SNPs, located in the upstream promoter region of ALOX5AP gene, were...
