We tested the hypothesis that the (-1072)G > A and (-444)A > C promoter polymorphisms of leukotriene C4 synthase confer risk of transient ischemic attack (TIA), ischemic stroke, ischemic heart disease (IHD), asthma, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
We tested the hypothesis that ANX-A1-deficiency exaggerates inflammation, haematopoietic stem progenitor cell (HSPC) activity and LV remodelling in response to myocardial ischaemia in vivo.
We tested the hypothesis that apolipoprotein(a) pentanucleotide repeat genotype predicts elevated lipoprotein(a) levels and risk of myocardial infarction (MI) and ischemic heart disease (IHD) in the general population.
We tested if two of those markers, endothelin-1 (ET-1) and growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15), can be used as immunohistochemical markers for myocardial ischaemia/infarctions.

We tested 9,214 men and women from a general population sample and 948 patients with ischemic heart disease for the Asn291Ser substitution in lipoprotein lipase.
We systematically identified cost-effectiveness analyses (CEAs) of RCTs cited in the ACC/AHA 2012 Guideline for the Diagnosis and Management of Patients with Stable Ischemic Heart Disease.

We suggest therefore that pharmacological inhibition of AMP deaminase before transient ischemic event such as during ischemic heart disease or cardiac surgery could provide therapeutic benefit.

We studied the frequency distribution of the PAI-I gene to test the hypothesis that the 4G/4G genotype favors myocardial ischemia and, even in the absence of acute infarction, promotes SCD in patients with CAD.
We studied 17 families (n = 122) with mutations in the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor gene as a model in which to test formally for linkage directly between an atherogenic genotype and ischemic heart disease (IHD) or aorto-coronary calcified atherosclerosis.
We sought to investigate the expression of this pathway along with the expression of mitochondrial biogenesis (PGC-1α [peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α]), dynamics (DRP-1 [dynamin-related protein 1], OPA-1 [optic atrophy 1], and MFN 2 [mitofusin 2]), and oxidative phosphorylation (citrate synthase and electron transport chain complexes) markers and COX IV (cytochrome C oxidase) activity in myocardium from patients with valvular or ischemic heart disease and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) or heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

We resequenced APOA1 in 190 individuals and examined the effect of mutations on HDL cholesterol, risk of IHD, myocardial infarction (MI) and mortality in 10 440 individuals in the prospective Copenhagen City Heart Study followed for 31 years.
We propose a protective mechanism whereby angiopoietin-1 increases the integrity of the endothelial lining and exerts a direct survival effect on cardiomyocytes under myocardial ischemia followed by reperfusion.
We previously showed that the common Asn291Ser substitution in lipoprotein lipase is associated with elevated plasma triglyceride levels and a 2-fold increase in the risk of ischemic heart disease in women but not men.
We previously reported that ETB receptors are up-regulated in the smooth muscle layer of coronary arteries after myocardial ischaemia-reperfusion and that the MEK-ERK1/2 signalling pathway is involved in ETB receptor up-regulation.
We previously demonstrated that OP-D-mediated cardioprotection involves activation of CYP2J2/3 and enhancement of circulating EETs levels in vitro and can be developed as a novel drug for the therapy of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury.
We present evidence that genetic disruption of PARS provides protection against myocardial ischemia and reperfusion injury by inhibiting the expression of P-selectin and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and, consequently, by inhibiting the recruitment of neutrophils into the jeopardized tissue.
