Fibrillin-1 Gene Polymorphisms (rs145233125, rs11070646, rs201170905) Are Associated With the Susceptibility and Clinical Prognosis of DeBakey Type III Aortic Dissection in Chinese Han Population.

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT: We aim to investigate whether genetic variants of the Fibrillin-1 (FBN1) gene were associated with DeBakey type III aortic dissection (AD) and its clinical prognosis in Chinese Han population. Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs145233125, rs11070646, rs201170905) in FBN1 were analyzed in patients with DeBakey type III AD (159) and healthy subjects (216). Gene-environment interactions were...
