The association between heme oxygenase-1 gene promoter polymorphism and the outcomes of catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation.

A length polymorphism of GT repeats in the promoter region of the human heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) gene modulates its gene transcription to protect against myocardial injury. The present study investigated the association between HO-1 promoter polymorphisms and the outcomes of catheter ablation of atri...
