TLDR
En este articulo se presenta una revision narrativa sobre el conocimiento actual of the genetica de esta patologia y sus implicaciones clinicas: the identificacion of dianas terapeuticas, the mejora en the prediccion del riesgo and the identification of pacientes respondedores o no respondedores a un tratamiento farmacologico.
Abstract
Resumen La cardiopatia isquemica continua siendo responsable de una gran morbilidad y mortalidad a nivel poblacional. Con el envejecimiento de la poblacion se espera que el numero de casos aumente en los proximos anos y su prevencion es un elemento importante en las politicas sanitarias. El riesgo de presentar cardiopatia isquemica esta relacionado con caracteristicas geneticas del individuo y su interaccion con factores ambientales y estilos de vida. En los ultimos anos se ha avanzado considerablemente en el conocimiento de las bases geneticas de la cardiopatia isquemica. En este articulo se presenta una revision narrativa sobre el conocimiento actual de la genetica de esta patologia y sus implicaciones clinicas: la identificacion de dianas terapeuticas, el estudio de la relacion causal entre un biomarcador y una enfermedad, la mejora en la prediccion del riesgo y la identificacion de pacientes respondedores o no respondedores a un tratamiento farmacologico.

Prioritization of causal genes for coronary artery disease based on cumulative evidence from experimental and in silico studies.

TL;DR: This study aimed to prioritize CAD-relevant genes based on cumulative evidence from the published studies and study of colocalization between eQTLs and loci associated with CAD using SMR/HEIDI approach, and concluded that evidence for gene prioritization remains inconsistent, insufficient, or absent.

A second generation human haplotype map of over 3.1 million SNPs

Kelly A. Frazer, +237 more
- 18 Oct 2007 - 
TL;DR: The Phase II HapMap is described, which characterizes over 3.1 million human single nucleotide polymorphisms genotyped in 270 individuals from four geographically diverse populations and includes 25–35% of common SNP variation in the populations surveyed, and increased differentiation at non-synonymous, compared to synonymous, SNPs is demonstrated.
