Association of genetic polymorphisms in rachidonate 5-lipoxygenase activating protein (ALOX5AP) in patients undergoing vascular intervention.

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Diseases of the circulatory system
Registration Number
KCT0007148
Lead Sponsor
Pusan National University Yangsan Hospital
Brief Summary

The rs9551963 SNP of ALOX5AP was found to be associated with the prevalence and extent of PAD in this study. The group with the C/C genotype of rs9551963 was more likely to develop PAD than the group with the A/A genotype of rs9551963. Furthermore, the more C alleles in rs9551963 an individual has, the more legs tend to be affected by PAD.
