Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: We evaluated whether cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene polymorphisms are associated with the presence of coronary artery disease (CAD) and/or restenosis in patients with coronary stent. METHODS: Two polymorphisms of the CETP gene [-971 A/G (rs4783961), and Taq1B A/G (rs708272)] were genotyped by 5'exonuclease TaqMan assays in 219 patients with CAD (66 patients with restenosis and 153...
