Insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism at the locus for angiotensin I-converting enzyme and parental history of myocardial infarction.

Clinical genetics - 1 Dec 1993

Abstract excerpt

One hundred and eighty-one male and 48 female myocardial infarction (MI) survivors and 172 male and 194 female controls were studied with respect to a possible association between premature parental MI (before age 61 years in mothers and/or before age 56 years in fathers) and an insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism in the gene encoding angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE). In the total series, the frequency of...
