OPN Gene Polymorphism and the Serum OPN Levels Confer the Susceptibility and Prognosis of Ischemic Stroke in Chinese Patients

OPN Gene Polymorphism and the Serum OPN Levels Confer the Susceptibility and Prognosis of Ischemic Stroke in Chinese Patients

Aim: To investigate the association of Osteopontin (OPN) gene polymorphism and serum thrombin-cleaved OPN level with the susceptibility to ischemic stroke (IS) and its prognosis. Methods: A total of 377 patients with IS and 551 healthy individuals were recruited. The OPN gene polymorphisms at -156 G...
