The miR-145 rs353291 C allele increases susceptibility to atherosclerosis
Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark, 2020 Atherosclerosis (AS) is one of the leading causes of death, with variable frequencies in different populations. To this end, we examined whether AS is associated with the miR-145 rs353291 polymorphism and specific rs353291 alleles.
