The Relationship Between Slow Coronary Flow and Angiotensin Converting Enzyme and ATIIR1 Gene Polymorphisms
Endothelial dysfunction in coronary arteries is the
main pathogenetic mechanism in patients with slow coronary
flow (SCF). Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene
polymorphism has important effects on endothelial function.
However, angiographic studies investigating the relation
between the ACE and angiotensin II type 1 receptor (ATIIR1)
insertion (I)/deletion (D) polymorphism and SCF is limited.
