Angiotensin II type 1 receptor A1166C gene polymorphism Absence of an association with the risk of coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction and of a synergistic effect with angiotensin-converting enzyme gene polymorphism on the risk of these diseases
1 Nov 1998
Abstract excerpt
AIM: There is evidence that interaction between angiotensin II type 1 receptor A1166C gene polymorphism and angiotensin I-converting enzyme Insertion/Deletion gene variation might have an effect on the risk of myocardial infarction. The study was carried out in a population of 2244 male Caucasians, whose coronary anatomy was defined by means of coronary angiography. We analysed the relationship, on the risk of...
