Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: RANKL is a member of the TNF superfamily that stimulates chemokine release, monocyte/macrophage matrix migration and matrix metalloproteinase activity and plays an important role in atherosclerosis. In our study, we have evaluated whether RANKL gene polymorphisms are involved in ischemic stroke in Italian subjects. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In a retrospective study we have included 487 patients (242 males,...
