Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study was to investigate whether the polymorphisms of the ADAMTS7 gene affect the risk of occurrence and mortality due to CAD. The study group included 231 patients diagnosed with CAD and 240 control blood donors. The genotyping of specified polymorphisms, i.e., rs1994016, rs3825807, and rs7173743, was performed using the TaqMan-PCR. We found that the C allele carriers of the rs1994016 and A...
