Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 contributed to angiotensin II (Ang II)-mediated collagen accumulation after myocardial infarction (MI). The present study aimed to investigate the association of genetic variant of TGF-β1 gene with the risk of MI. The present study recruited a total of 530 MI patients and 651 healthy controls. The genomic DNA was extracted and subjected into polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Sanger sequencing. The present study indicated that TGF-β1 -913G/C polymorphism was ...[more]
