Association of CYP4A22 gene polymorphisms with cerebral stroke risk in the Chinese Han population.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Cerebral stroke (stroke) is an acute cerebrovascular disease with high incidence and mortality. This study aimed to explore the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of CYP4A22 and stroke risk in the Chinese Han population. METHODS: A total of 550 stroke patients and 545 healthy people were recruited. Four candidate SNPs (rs76011927 T/C, rs12564525 C/T, rs2056900 A/G and rs4926581...
