4G/5G Promoter PAI-1 Gene Polymorphism Is Associated with Plasmatic PAI-1 Activity in Italians: A Model of Gene-Environment Interaction
1 Jan 1998
Abstract excerpt
The PAI-1 gene promoter 4G/5G polymorphism was found to be associated with plasma PAI-1 activity in Northern and Central Europe populations, but no data are available on the association between this polymorphism and PAI-1 levels in Southern Europe countries (such as Italy) where the incidence of ischemic disorders is lower. This study shows that among populations with different incidence of atherothrombotic...
