Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Genetic control of serum angiotensin I converting enzyme (SACE) levels has been suggested. A study was undertaken to elucidate the role of this polymorphism in sarcoidosis. METHODS: Three hundred and forty one unrelated healthy controls and 103 consecutive patients with sarcoidosis pa...
