[Analysis of polymorphism of three positions of promoter region of TNF- gene in patients with ischemic heart disease, unstable angina and myocardial infarction].
We studied polymorphism of three positions of promoter region of TNF alpha gene in patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD), development of unstable angina (UA) and acute myocardial infarction (MI). Analysis of frequencies of genotypes in position A308 showed that heterozygotness in patients with cardiovascular diseases significantly decreased. Lowering of risk of development of MI in carriers of heterozygous variant of the gene in position A308 was shown. In the group of patients with Q wave MI frequency of A308 AA genotype rose.
