Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The fat mass and obesity-associated protein (FTO) has been showed to be involved in the pathogenesis and progression of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the effects of FTO variants on CAD risk remain poorly understood. We herein genotyped three SNPs (rs1121980, rs72803657, and rs4783818) in FTO to investigate the influence of FTO polymorphisms on individual susceptibility to CAD. METHODS:...
