Overall, no significantly decreased risk of CAD was found in persons with the SS genotype of the HO-1 (GT)n repeat length polymorphism compared with those with the LL + SL genotype.
A (GT)n dinucleotide repeat and a -413A>T single nucleotide polymorphism have been reported in the promoter region of HMOX1 to both influence the occurrence of coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction.
Although potentially beneficial effects of the short HO-1 allele on lipid profile and serum bilirubin were observed, in contrast to Orientals, the HO-1 genotype was not associated with coronary artery disease in Caucasians.
A functional GT-repeat polymorphism in the HO-1 gene promoter was inversely correlated to the development of coronary artery disease in diabetics and development of restenosis following angioplasty in patients.
Length polymorphism in the HO-1 gene promoter is related to CAD susceptibility in Japanese people who also have coronary risk factors such as hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, and smoking.
To test the association of microsatellite polymorphism in the promoter region of human HO-1 gene with the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) in type 2 diabetic patients, we examined the allele frequencies of (GT) (n) repeats in HO-1 gene in 474 patients with CAD and in 322 controls.
This study screened for HMOX1 polymorphisms and investigated the association between HMOX1 polymorphisms and coronary artery disease (CAD) in the Korean population.
A functional GT-repeat polymorphism in the heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) gene promoter is inversely correlated with the development of coronary artery disease and restenosis after clinical angioplasty.
Short (GT) ( n ) repeats in heme oxygenase-1 gene promoter are associated with lower risk of coronary heart disease in subjects with high levels of oxidative stress.
To test the association of microsatellite polymorphism in the promoter region of human HO-1 gene with the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) in type 2 diabetic patients, we examined the allele frequencies of (GT) (n) repeats in HO-1 gene in 474 patients with CAD and in 322 controls.
Length polymorphism in the HO-1 gene promoter is related to CAD susceptibility in Japanese people who also have coronary risk factors such as hypercholesterolemia, diabetes, and smoking.
We analyzed the allelic frequencies of guanosine thymidine dinucleotide repeats in the heme oxygenase-1 gene promoter in 386 patients with coronary artery disease recruited from January 1999 to July 2001 and followed until August 31, 2012.
The HO-1 gene GT dinucleotide repeat promoter polymorphism and HO-1+99G/C variant were evaluated in 199 patients with coronary artery disease after coronary stent implantation and control angiography at 6 months after the intervention.
Heme oxygenase-1 gene promoter polymorphisms are associated with coronary heart disease and restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention: a meta-analysis.
We aimed to examine whether the length of (GT)(n) repeats in HO-1 gene promoter is associated with ischemic stroke in people with CAD risk factors, especially low level of HDL.
Although a direct association between HO-1, vulnerable plaque development, and clinical outcome is for now missing, the correlations that have been reported for HO-1 and coronary artery disease point to a possible link.
To test the association of microsatellite polymorphism in the promoter region of human HO-1 gene with the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) in type 2 diabetic patients, we examined the allele frequencies of (GT) (n) repeats in HO-1 gene in 474 patients with CAD and in 322 controls.
Recently, we and others examined blood HO-1 levels in patients with atherosclerotic diseases, e.g., coronary artery disease (CAD) and peripheral artery disease (PAD).
