Angiotensinogen gene M235T polymorphism and risk of coronary artery disease: a meta-analysis.
The angiotensinogen (AGT) gene M235T polymorphism has been suggested to be linked with susceptibility to coronary artery disease (CAD). In the present study, a meta-analysis was performed to assess the correlation between the M235T polymorphism and CAD. Nine studies with a total of 2281 subjects were selected for inclusion in the analysis. The references were retrieved via PubMed, China Nationa...
متن کاملAngiotensinogen gene polymorphism, plasma angiotensinogen, and risk of hypertension and ischemic heart disease: a meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate whether the M235T polymorphism in the angiotensinogen gene was associated with angiotensinogen levels, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, hypertension, and risk of ischemic cardiovascular disease in different ethnic populations. METHODS AND RESULTS One hundred twenty-seven studies published between January 1992 and March 2002 examining th...
متن کاملAssociation between T174M polymorphism in the angiotensinogen gene and risk of coronary artery disease: a meta-analysis
BACKGROUND Angiotensinogen (AGT) T174M gene polymorphism has been suggested to be linked to risk of coronary artery disease, however, results from studies of this association have been inconsistent. In this study, we assess the relationship between AGT T174M gene polymorphism and coronary artery disease. METHODS We conducted a meta-analysis of 18 case-control studies with 8,147 coronary arter...
متن کاملRelation Between M235T Polymorphism of the Angiotensinogen Gene and Coronary Artery Disease in Taiwanese: An Angiography-Controlled Study
Background: Polymorphisms of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system have been found in association with coronary artery disease (CAD). The M235T polymorphism is the most important angiotensinogen (AGT) genetic variant. The relationship between AGT gene polymorphisms and CAD has been investigated in only a few studies, however, with conflicting results. In most of these studies, not all partic...
متن کاملAnalysis of the association Hind III Polymorphism of Lipoprotein Lipase gene on the risk of coronary artery disease
Background: Coronary artery disease (CAD) is one of the leading causes of death and disability around the world. Interaction between genetic and environmental factors determines susceptibility of an individual to develop coronary artery disease . Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) play an important role in the metabolism of HDL-C ( High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol ), LDL-C (Low Density Lipoprotein Ch...
