Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is a cardiovascular disease caused by obstruction of coronary arteries by atheromatous plaque. Susceptibility to this disease may be related to genetic variations, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Objective: In this study, we evaluated the relationship between SNPs in IL8 (rs4073; -251 A/T) and IL16 (rs11556218; T/G) genes and SCA in a Brazilian population. Materials and Methods: A sample of 200 patients with ACS and 50 non-ACS patients hospitalized at the Real Hospital Português, […]
