Odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to evaluate the strength of associations between the MCP-1 A-2518G polymorphism (rs1024611) and IHD and IS susceptibilities.
In summary, this study revealed no association of CCR2 rs1799864 SNP with IS, and a positive association between G minor allele of MCP1 rs1024611 SNP and IS in the Armenian population.
We have previously observed that genetic profiles determined by the combination of five functionally significant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs1800795, rs5498, rs5361, rs1024611, and rs679620) of genes encoding prototypical inflammatory molecules are associated with history of ischemic stroke.
