Genetic variants of arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein, and risk of incident myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke: a nested case-control approach

Recent findings have implicated specific gene polymorphisms of arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (ALOX5AP), and 2 at-risk haplotypes (HapA, HapB) in myocardial infarction and stroke. To date, no prospective data are available. We evaluated 10 specific Icelandic ALOX5AP gene variants amo...
