The aim of this study was to clarify whether genetic variations in four miRNA genes (miR-143 rs4705342, miR-122 rs17669, miR-126 rs4636297, and miR-124 rs531564) contribute to IS susceptibility.
We investigated whether three common microRNA polymorphisms (miR-21T>C [rs1292037], miR-126G>A [rs4636297] and miR-605T>C [rs2043556]) were associated with ischemic stroke (IS) risk in a Chinese population.
