BackgroundBrain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is involved in the pathophysiology of coronary artery disease (CAD). The human BDNF Val66Met polymorphism has been shown to be associated with altered susceptibility to neuropsychiatric disorders. However it is unknown whether this polymorphism plays a role in cardiovascular disease.MethodsGenotyping of BDNF Val66Met polymorphism was carried out in 513 controls, 628 unstable angina pectoris (UAP) and 276 stable angina pectoris (SAP) patients. The plasma concentrations of BDNF and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were measured by ELISA. The general clinical data in patients and controls were obtained.ResultsThere was a significant association between genotype and allele frequency of the BDNF Val66Met polymorphism and UAP (all P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the BDNFMet/Met genotype had a protective effect on the occurrence of UAP after controlling for known risk factors of CAD (OR 0.53, P = 0.005). Subjects with BDNFMet/Met genotype also had decreased plasma hsCRP levels compared with the Val carriers (P < 0.01).ConclusionThe BDNFMet/Met genotype has a protective effect on the occurrence of UAP, which might in part be due to the decreased plasma hsCRP level in BDNFMet/Met carriers. To our knowledge, this is the first study that demonstrates the link between BDNF Val66Met polymorphism and CAD.  相似文献

ObjectivesTo assess the relationship between IL-6 and PAI-1 polymorphisms and coronary artery disease (CAD) and to observe the interactions between these polymorphic variants and smoking in the CAD risk.Design and methodThe study population consisted of 178 patients with angiographically documented CAD and 202 blood donors. The analyses of genetic polymorphisms were performed using the PCR-RFLP method.ResultsThe frequency of PAI-1 5G allele was higher in the entire CAD group than in control group (p = 0.04, OR = 1.35). Also the 5G allele carriers (4G5G + 5G5G) were more frequent in patients than in controls (p = 0.03, OR = 1.93). The number of women carrying 5G allele was again significantly higher among patients (OR = 10.95 p = 0.0075). The IL-6 C allele frequency was higher only in the CAD male subgroup (p = 0.035, OR = 1.44). We found synergistic and cumulative effects between specific genotype patterns and smoking in determining the risk of CAD, especially between PAI-1(4G5G + 5G5G)+IL-6(CC) and smoking (SIM = 4.18 and p = 0.0005, OR = 9.20, respectively).ConclusionsThere are synergistic and cumulative effects of 5G allele of PAI-1 polymorphism and C allele of IL-6 polymorphism with smoking in determining their associated risk with CAD.  相似文献

BackgroundPolygenetic effect has rarely been addressed in the genetic studies of coronary artery disease (CAD). We used the largest and ethnically homogeneous angiographic cohort to analyze multilocus data in renin-angiotensin system genes, and provide an explicit demonstration of gene–gene interactions.MethodsA total of 1254 consecutive patients who underwent cardiac catheterization (735 with coronary artery disease and 519 without) were recruited. Angiotensin converting enzyme(ACE) gene I/D polymorphism; T174M, M235T, G-6A, A-20C, G-152A, and G-217A polymorphisms of the angiotensinogen (AGT) gene; and A1166C polymorphism of the angiotensin II type I receptor (AT1R) gene were genotyped. We used a regression approach based on a generalized linear model to evaluate haplotype effects, adjust non-genetic confounding effects and detect gene–gene interaction between ACE and AT1R genes.ResultsWe found significant differences in global AGT gene haplotype profile and individual haplotypes between cases and controls. Significant two-way and three-way gene–gene interactions between ACE I/D, AT1R A1166C polymorphisms and AGT gene haplotypes were detected. However, subjects carrying both D allele and GGCATC haplotype had an increased risk of CAD (odds ratio = 1.63 [1.16–2.29]; P = 0.004). We also used haplotype counting to directly estimate the odds ratio of each specific AGT gene haplotype, and found that the effects of haplotypes were markedly different in subgroups with different ACE or AT1R gene genotype.ConclusionsThe regression-based haplotype analyses permits simultaneous dectection of multi-locus and multi-gene effects in determining the risk of CAD. We provide the paradigm for genetic studies of complex-trait diseases using candidate genes based on biological pathways.  相似文献

BackgroudChREBP regulates lipogenesis and glucose utilization in the liver. Current reports suggest a contradictive association between rs3812316 of this gene and triglyceride level. We hypothesized the polymorphisms in ChREBP gene were associated with CAD in Chinese population.MethodsThe ChREBP gene polymorphisms were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) methods in 200 controls and 310 CAD patients. Serum lipids and glucose concentrations were measured in all subjects. Haplotypes were constructed based on rs3812316, rs7798357 and rs1051921. All the data were analyzed using SPSS14.0, PLINK1.07 and SHEsis software.ResultsThe rare allele G of rs3812316 was significantly lower in the CAD group after adjusting for age, sex, BMI, SBP and DBP (ORa = 0.589, 95%CI = 0.361–0.961, P = 0.034). No significant differences between cases and controls were found in genotype or allele distributions of rs7798357, rs17145750 and rs1051921. Haplotype CGC was significant higher in CAD group (P < 0.01, OR = 2.364, 95%CI = 1.608–3.474), while haplotypes GGC, CGT, CCC were significant lower in CAD group (P < 0.05).ConclusionsThe rs3812316 and the haplotypes in ChREBP gene appeared to be related to high susceptibility to CAD.  相似文献

ObjectiveThe resistin gene (RETN) ?420 C > G and + 299 G > A polymorphism was investigated in a case-control study from forty complex Pakistani families with coronary artery disease (CAD) history. Heritability of the susceptible/variant alleles was investigated from parent–offspring trios in these families.MethodResistin levels were determined from 239 individuals by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Genotyping was performed using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism.ResultsElevated resistin levels were observed from CAD cases vs. controls (p < 0.0001). The RETN ? 420 C > G and + 299 G > A polymorphism was more prevalent in cases vs. controls (p < 0.0001). The transmission disequilibrium test revealed a significant association of the ? 420 and + 299 polymorphism with CAD (χ2 = 34.4, p < 0.0001 and χ2 = 31.6, p < 0.0001, respectively).ConclusionElevated resistin, and the RETN ?420 C > G and + 299 G > A polymorphism may contribute to familial CAD. The ? 420 and + 299 variant alleles are transmitted more frequently from parent to affected offspring. This is the first report on the association of the RETN + 299 G > A polymorphism with CAD.  相似文献

ObjectivesMajor depressive disorder (MDD) is an increasingly recognized risk factor of coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between renin-angiotensin system (RAS) genetic polymorphisms and CAD in a sample of depressed Iranian patients.Design and methodsA total of 191 patients with a history of unipolar depression were enrolled in a case/control study. The presence of MDD was reconfirmed at study entry using DSM-IV criteria and CAD was diagnosed by coronary angiography. Genotyping of six RAS genes polymorphisms was performed by a modified PCR-RFLP method.ResultsDD genotype of ACE I/D was independently associated with the incidence of CAD in depressed patients (P = 0.011, OR = 9.41, 95% CI: 1.68–17.81). Moreover, serum creatinine (P = 0.033, OR = 11.91, 95%CI: 7.23–15.62) was an independent predictor of CAD among depressed individuals.ConclusionACE I/D polymorphism may play a major role in the development of CAD amongst Iranian depressed patients.  相似文献

ObjectivesThe main aim was to study the effects of COMT polymorphisms on response of risperidone treatment for schizophrenia and investigate the correlation between memory function of schizophrenia patients and COMT polymorphisms.Design and methodsSubjects were 83 schizophrenic patients who were antipsychotic drug free at the initiation of this study. Peripheral blood samples were obtained to identify COMT polymorphisms by using a polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. Clinical Global Impressions (CGI), Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS) test were used to assess the effect of risperidone treatment.ResultsThe Val/Met carriers showed a significant increase in change of P300 during treatment (P = 0.032). Association of Val/Met carriers performed better than other genotypes (P = 0.028). The mean plasma concentration of prolactin of Val/Val carriers was significantly lower (P = 0.017).ConclusionsThe COMT polymorphisms may be a potential biomarker for clinical risperidone treatment in schizophrenia.  相似文献

BackgroundSeveral genome wide screens and candidate gene studies have implicated the chromosome 12p13 locus as possibly harboring genetic variants predisposed to late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). Recently, the strongest significant association was reported for the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs11610206 on chromosome 12q13 in an independent genome-wide association study (GWAS) in Caucasians.MethodsWe investigated whether the SNP on chromosome 12q13 was associated with LOAD in a Han Chinese population. The common rs11610206 SNP on chromosome 12q13 was genotyped using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry in 322 patients with LOAD and in 391 healthy controls matched for sex and age.ResultsPatients with LOAD had higher frequencies of T allele (56.0% versus 49.2%) compared with controls [odds ratio (OR) = 1.45, 95% confidence intervals (CI) = 1.08–1.95, and P = 0.01]. After stratification by APOE ε4-carrying status, the T allele of rs11610206 was significantly associated with LOAD only in APOE ε4 allele carriers (OR = 2.05, 95% CI = 1.21–3.47, and P = 0.007). Furthermore, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the TT genotype carriers demonstrated a 1.52-fold risk when compared with (TC + CC) genotype carriers (OR = 1.52, 95% CI = 1.07–2.17, and P = 0.02).ConclusionsThis study demonstrates an association of rs11610206 polymorphism locus on chromosome 12q13 with risk for LOAD in Han Chinese.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo test for possible association of hsp70-2 (+ 1267A/G), hsp70-hom (+ 2437T/C), HMOX-1 (number of GT repeats) and TNF-α (+ 489G/A) polymorphisms with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Croatian population.MethodsGenotyping of DNA isolated from whole blood of 130 COPD patients (as defined by spirometry) and 95 healthy controls was performed. Fragment size analysis upon restriction enzyme digestion and/or sequencing was used for genotype/allele definition. Significance of findings was tested using χ2 test.Resultshsp70-2 (+ 1267A/G) polymorphism was significantly associated with COPD. Results of genotyping analysis indicated that a genotype carrying G allele was preferentially associated with COPD; odds ratio (OR) = 1.50, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.00–2.24 and P = 0.061. OR for the GG genotype was 3.47 with CI = 1.26–9.56 and P = 0.04. No association for hsp70-hom (+ 2437T/C), TNF-α (+ 489G/A) and HMOX-1 (number of GT repeats) polymorphisms were found. In addition, comparison of genotype frequencies among different stages of disease severity (GOLD II-IV) revealed no discrimination for any of the tested polymorphisms.ConclusionThis study is supporting the association of hsp70-2 (+ 1267A/G) polymorphism and COPD. Higher frequency of G allele and GG genotype in Croatian COPD patients was observed. There was no evidence for the association of hsp70-hom (+ 2437T/C), TNF-α (+ 489G/A) SNPs and HMOX-1 (number of GT repeats) polymorphism with COPD. Allele and genotype frequencies for all of the tested polymorphisms show no association with disease severity (GOLD II-IV).  相似文献

BackgroundLRP2 (also called megalin) plays a potential key role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recently, one genome-wide association study has revealed that the rs3755166 (G/A) polymorphism located in the LRP2 promoter is associated with development of AD in Caucasians, while there are no studies on the association LRP2 of with AD risk in Asians.MethodsTo evaluate the relationship between the rs3755166 polymorphism of the LRP2 gene and AD in the ethnic Chinese Han, we conducted a case-control study (n = 361, age > 50) to determine the prevalence of one common single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of LRP2 (rs3755166) in patients with AD in Chinese population of Mainland China, and clarified whether this polymorphism is a risk factor for AD.ResultsThe prevalence of the minor allele (A) in the rs3755166 polymorphism was significantly different in AD patients and control subjects (P < 0.05). The rs3755166 polymorphism was associated with AD in the ethnic Chinese Han (OR = 1.378, 95% CI: 1.017-1.867, P = 0.039), and the results were not influenced by age, gender, or APOE status (P = 0.441, P = 0.94, P = 0.432, respectively).ConclusionOur data revealed the allele (A) of the rs3755166 polymorphism within LRP2 gene may contribute to AD risk in the Chinese Han Population.  相似文献

BackgroundMembranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) is one of common causes of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in adults, and 25% of MGN patients proceed to end-stage renal disease. STAT4 gene polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with many inflammatory diseases. The objective of this study was to clarify the relationship between STAT4 gene polymorphisms and the pathogenesis of MGN.MethodsWe investigated the association of three STAT4 gene polymorphisms (rs3024912, rs3024908, and rs3024877) with the susceptibility to MGN in 403 Taiwanese populations (138 MGN patients and 265 controls).ResultsThe results indicated that the statistically significant difference in genotype frequency distribution was found at rs3024908 SNP in MGN patients and control groups (p = 0.014). In addition, the individuals with the GG genotype at rs3024912 SNP may have a higher risk in kidney failure of MGN patients (adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 3.255; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.155–9.176, p = 0.026).ConclusionsOur data provide a new information that the STAT4 (rs3024912 and rs3024908) polymorphisms may be the underlying cause of MGN, and these polymorphisms revealed by this study warrant further investigation.  相似文献

ObjectiveWe evaluated the relationship between polymorphisms of the paraoxonase (PON) gene and the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) in Taiwanese patients.MethodsOur sample set included 369 volunteers, classified into two groups: 162 healthy volunteers and 207 CAD patients aged 60.0 ± 9.7 and 64.3 ± 12.3 years, respectively. Polymorphisms of the PON1 and PON2 genes were determined using polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) techniques.ResultsThe results indicate that for the PON1 gene, the homozygous genotype RR was found significantly more often among the CAD group compared with the healthy group (OR = 1.965, 95% CI = 1.223–3.159, p = 0.005). Furthermore, for the PON2 gene, the homozygous genotype CC was found significantly more often among the CAD group compared with the control group (OR = 2.525, 95% CI = 1.103–5.780, p = 0.026).ConclusionsIndividuals homozygous for the R allele of the PON1 gene and the C allele of the PON2 gene are more likely to have an increased risk of CAD.  相似文献

BackgroundPhenotypic switching of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic lesions such as coronary artery disease (CAD). Accumulating evidence demonstrates that a cellular repressor of E1A-stimulated genes (CREG) plays a role in the maintenance of the mature phenotype of vascular SMCs. We assessed the possible association between CREG and CAD in the Han population of North China.MethodsThe promoter region of CREG by direct sequencing was conducted in 48 subjects. Then SNP rs2995073 and another 4 tagSNPs (rs4657669, rs3767443, rs16859185, and rs3753921) were selected for the association study. All five selected SNPs were determined in 1161 patients with angiographically proven CAD and 960 controls with normal coronary angiograms to investigate the possible involvement of CREG in CAD.ResultsGenotype frequencies of the 5 polymorphisms were similarly distributed between CAD group and controls (P > 0.05). Further haplotype analysis also found no significant differences in the distributions between CAD group and controls (P > 0.05).ConclusionThis study did not show an association between common variants of CREG and CAD in the northern Chinese Han population.  相似文献

ObjectivesWe investigated whether α2-adrenergic receptor (AR) polymorphisms (α2A-AR, α2B-AR and α2C-AR gene) affected silent myocardial ischemia (SMI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Design and methodsGenetic polymorphisms were determined in 321 patients with T2DM and coronary artery disease (CAD). Among them, 129 patients experienced transient asymptomatic ST-depression during 24-hour ambulatory electrocardiogram (SMI group), and the remaining 192 patients who had ambulatory electrocardiogram-symptom matching angina were categorized as angina group.ResultsThe genotype distribution and allele frequencies of α2B-AR gene polymorphism (insertion [I]/deletion[D]) exhibited significant difference between SMI group and angina group (both P < 0.05), with genotype II (34.9%) being higher in SMI group than in angina group (19.8%)(P < 0.01). Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that duration of diabetes and genotype II of α2B-AR gene polymorphism were independently associated with SMI.ConclusionsHomozygote for I allele of α2B-AR gene polymorphism is associated with SMI in T2DM patients with CAD.  相似文献

Objectives:In recent years, importance of enzyme activity measurements, in addition to genotyping, in epidemiological studies relating paraoxonase 1 (PON1) and vascular disease was emphasized. This is the first report evaluating paraoxonase and arylesterase activities as risk factors for ischemic stroke. In addition, PON1 192Gln(Q)/Arg(R) and 55Leu(L)/Met(M) polymorphisms were also analyzed.Design and methods:The study population was comprised of 108 ischemic stroke patients and 78 controls. Enzyme activities were determined by spectrophotometric assays and for genotyping, standard PCR protocols followed by restriction enzyme digestions were used.Results:The prevalence of the PON1 192RR genotype was increased among stroke patients (16.7%) as compared to controls (9.0%, P = 0.129). Paraoxonase and arylesterase activities and PON1 activity ratio (paraoxonase/arylesterase) were found to be lower in patients than in controls. Logistic regression analysis revealed PON1 activity ratio (odds ratio, OR = 0.697, 95% CI, 0.541 to 0.898, P = 0.005), PON1 192RR genotype (OR = 3.434, 95% CI, 1.159 to 10.178, P = 0.026) and PON1 status (PON1 activity ratio combined with PON1 192RR genotype; OR = 1.406, 95% CI, 1.038 to 1.905, P = 0.028) as significant predictors of stroke.Conclusions:This study identified PON1 activity ratio, PON1 192RR genotype and PON1 status as important risk factors for ischemic stroke.  相似文献

ObjectivesMonocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1:CCL2) has been demonstrated to be involved in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis and hypertension. This study was aimed to investigate whether the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at ?2518 of the MCP-1 gene promoter region is associated to hypertension in a sample of Tunisian population.Design and methodsA total of 290 Tunisian patients with hypertension and 390 normotensive controls were included in the study. The SNP of the MCP-1 gene was determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis.ResultsA significant difference in genotype distribution and allele frequency was observed between patients and controls. Patients with hypertension had a frequency of 7.2% for the GG genotype, 35.2% for the AG genotype and 57.6% for the AA genotype. Normotensive subjects had a frequency of 3.6% for the GG genotype, 29.7% for the AG genotype and 66.7% for the AA genotype (χ2 = 8.02, p = 0.01). The hypertension patient group showed a significant higher frequency of the G allele compared to the controls [0.24 vs. 0.18; OR (95%CI), 1.46 (1.11–1.91), p = 0.004]. The association between the ?2518 G/A polymorphism of MCP-1 gene and hypertension remained significant after adjustment for other well-established cardiovascular risk factors.ConclusionThe present study showed a significant and independent association between the ?2518G/A polymorphism of the MCP-1 gene (presence of G allele) and hypertension in the Tunisian population.  相似文献

BackgroundIncreased sperm ubiquitin was inversely associated with sperm count and motility. Ubiquitin-specific protease 26 (USP26), which is an X-linked gene, has been studied as a potential infertility gene. There are conflicting reports on whether variations in USP26 are associated with spermatogenesis.MethodsIn order to assess that USP26 polymorphisms contribute to male infertility, we screened 221 infertile men with azoospermia, oligozoospermia, asthenozoospermia, or oligoasthenozoospermia, and 101 control fertile men using DNA sequencing.ResultsThere were six polymorphisms identified, including an unreported variation (508G>A, G170R). Only the allele frequency of 576G>A was significantly higher in fertile men than infertile patients (p < 0.001), although this variant does not result in an amino acid change. The major haplotypes in fertile and infertile men were TGATC (76.2% vs 47.5% of the population, p < 0.001) and TGGTC (14.9% vs 39.4%, p < 0.001). The haplotype TGATC was under-transmitted, whereas the haplotype TGGTC was over-transmitted in infertile men with asthenozoospermia and oligoasthenozoospermia.ConclusionsOur results indicated the variation of USP26 was not directly associated with human sperm count but suggested it might be a potential role in sperm motility. The 576G>A synonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) might have a role in improving the sperm motility.  相似文献

BackgroundGABAA receptors influence the susceptibility to seizures, and variations in the receptor genes can contribute to antiepileptic drug resistance also.MethodsWe investigated the possible associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) present in GABRA6 c. 1512 T>C, GABRB2 c. 1412 C>T, and GABRR2 c. IVS2C>G genes of GABAA receptors in epilepsy susceptibility and drug resistance in northern Indian patients with epilepsy. After screening a total of 202 healthy controls and 401 epilepsy patients were enrolled in study. The genotyping was done by PCR-RFLP methods.ResultsThe GABRA6 c. 1512 T>C, polymorphism was conferring risk for epilepsy susceptibility for TC (P = 0.018), CC (P = 0.0001) genotype and for C allele (P = 0.0002). Another polymorphism GABRB2 c. 1412 C>T was also conferring high risk for epilepsy susceptibility CT (P = 0.012), TT (P = 0.778) genotype and for variant T allele (P = 0.034) but was not associated with drug resistance. No association was found with epilepsy susceptibility or with drug resistance in case of GABRR2 c. IVS2C>G gene polymorphism.ConclusionOverall, our findings suggest significant involvement of alpha (GABRA6) and beta (GABRB2) subunits of GABAA receptor in epilepsy susceptibility in north Indian population.  相似文献

BackgroundStatins are normally the first-line therapy for hypercholesterolemia (HC); however, the lipid-lowering response shows high interindividual variation. We investigated the effect of four polymorphisms in CYP3A4, CYP3A5 and ABCB1 genes on response to atorvastatin and CYP3A4 activity in Chilean subjects with HC.MethodsA total of 142 hypercholesterolemic individuals underwent atorvastatin therapy (10 mg/day/1 month). Serum lipid levels before and after treatment were measured. Genetic variants in CYP3A4 (? 290A>G, rs2740574), CYP3A5 (6986A>G, rs776746) and ABCB1 (2677G>A/T, rs2032582 and 3435C>T, rs1045642) were analyzed by PCR-RFLP. CYP3A4 enzyme activity in urine samples was assessed through determination of 6β-hydroxycortisol/cortisol free ratio (6βOHC/FC).ResultsAfter 4 weeks of therapy, a significant reduction in total cholesterol (TC) and LDL-c was observed (P < 0.001). The G allele for ? 290A>G polymorphism was related to higher percentage of variation in TC and LDL-c (P < 0.001). Moreover, same allele was associated with higher HDL-c variation (P = 0.017). In addition, CYP3A4 enzyme activity was lower in subjects carrying this polymorphism (P = 0.009). No differences were observed for CYP3A5 and ABCB1 variants.ConclusionOur results suggest that presence of G allele for ? 290A>G polymorphism determines a better response to atorvastatin, being also associated with lower CYP3A4 activity in vivo, causing an increased atorvastatin activity.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate the association between serum antibody titers to Hsp27 (anti-Hsp27) and pro-oxidant–antioxidant balance (PAB) in patients with angiographically-defined coronary artery disease (CAD) with or without the metabolic syndrome (MS).DesignSubjects (n = 243) were classified into MS+ (n = 161) and MS? (n = 82) subgroups, based on the AHA/NHBLI criteria.ResultsSerum anti-Hsp27 titers were found to be significantly higher in the MS+ vs. MS? group. However, no significant difference was observed in serum PAB values. When assessed for individual components of MS, increased serum anti-Hsp27 was found to be higher in subgroups with elevated triglycerides, elevated blood pressure and reduced high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Subgroups of patients with elevated triglycerides had higher PAB values. HDL-C was the only significant predictor of anti-Hsp27 in the population as a whole.ConclusionThe evidence from this investigation indicates the presence of elevated anti-Hsp27 in patients with concurrent CAD and MS compared to those with CAD alone.  相似文献
