Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Mitochondrial isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH2) is a major contributor to cellular redox control. The aim of this study was to preliminary link IDH2 genetic variations to redox imbalance, atherogenesis and risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). METHODS: This case-control study included 120 AMI patients and 120 healthy controls. IDH2 genetic variations were tested using direct sequencing. IDH2 enzyme...
