Abstract excerpt
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the noncoding region of 9p21 have been associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD), but the mechanisms by which these genetic variants contribute to the pathogenesis of CVD remain unknown since no annotated proteins are present in this region of DNA. The objective of the current study was to determine if 9p21 genotypes are associated with distinct plasma proteins in...
