Association between the factor VII haplotype containing the -402A allele and myocardial infarction in a population of elderly men at high risk for coronary heart disease.
To examine the R353Q polymorphism of the FVII gene and the relation to myocardial infarction (MI), cardiovascular disease (CVD), and diabetes, and furthermore, to elucidate the association between the polymorphism and plasma levels of FVII coagulant activity (FVIIc), FVII antigen (FVIIag), activated FVII (FVIIa), and serum choline-containing phospholipids (PC).
Three polymorphic alleles of coagulation factor VII (FVII) gene have been associated with a protective effect on the risk of familial myocardial infarction.
The decanucleotide insertion/deletion polymorphism in the promoter region of the coagulation factor VII gene and the risk of familial myocardial infarction.
