The association of combined alpha and beta fibrinogen genotype on plasma fibrinogen levels in smokers and non-smokers.

Journal of medical genetics - 1 Aug 1995

Thomas A E, Green F R, Lamlum H, Humphries S E

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine in healthy men: (1) whether an extended genotype of the fibrinogen gene cluster using the G/A-455 and the BclI polymorphism of the beta fibrinogen gene and TaqI of the alpha fibrinogen gene explains a significantly larger proportion of variance in plasma fibrinogen levels in either smokers or non-smokers than a single polymorphism (G/A-455); (2) whether there is any evidence for...
