Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Ischemic stroke (IS), a multifactorial and polygenic disease, is the most common cause of death. This study aimed to determine the roles of MMP8/MMP10 polymorphisms in IS susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. METHODS: MMP8 rs1940475 and rs3765620, and MMP10 rs17860949 from 700 IS patients and 700 controls were genotyped by the MassARRAY iPLEX platform. The impact of polymorphisms on IS risk...
