Title:
4G/5G polymorphism of the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 gene and risk of restenosis after coronary artery stenting.
Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) has been proposed as a candidate risk factor for restenosis after coronary artery stenting. Transcription, level, and activity of PAI-1 are influenced by the 4G/5G polymorphism in the promoter region of PAI-1 gene. The polymorphism may therefore affect wound-healing processes in injured blood vessels and influence restenosis. METHODS: In 1850 consecutive patients, angiographic measures of restenosis and the clinical outcome at 30 days and 1 y...     »
