Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The *2 allele of the aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 gene (ALDH2) is the most common variant in Asian populations. The variant resulting in enzyme dysfunction was highly related to coronary artery disease. Recently, genome-wide association studies also discovered that the 12q24 locus near ALDH2 gene was associated with hypertension and ischemic stroke. This study intended to further investigate...
