Cerebrovascular disorders and genetic polymorphisms: mitochondrial DNA5178C is predominant in cerebrovascular disorders

We studied polymorphisms of mitochondrial DNA 5178cytosine/adenine (mt5178C/A) and angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) genes ( DCP1) in 127 cerebrovascular disorder (CVD) patients and 294 age-matched normal controls to clarify the genetic background of Japanese patients with CVD. Mt5178C was predo...
