A survey of sub-Saharan gene flow into the Mediterranean at risk loci for coronary artery disease.

European journal of human genetics : EJHG - 1 Apr 2017

Abstract excerpt

This study tries to find detectable signals of gene flow of Sub-Saharan origin into the Mediterranean in four genomic regions previously associated with coronary artery disease. A total of 366 single-nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped in 772 individuals from 10 Mediterranean countries. Population structure analyses were performed, in which a noticeable Sub-Saharan component was found in the studied samples....
