Expression of the Marburg I Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (MI-SNP) and the Marburg II Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (MII-SNP) of the Factor VII-Activating Protease (FSAP) Gene and Risk of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): A Pilot Study in a Single Population.
CONCLUSIONS The MI-SNP and MII-SNP FSAP gene polymorphisms were not predictive or prognostic biomarkers for CAD or its main risk factors. However, the presence of the MII-SNP polymorphism was associated with a reduced risk of developing CAD.
