pubmed:abstractText |
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent angiogenic growth factor, but its role in atherogenesis is still unclear. Our goal was to study whether three variants of the VEGF gene, previously associated with VEGF production, are linked to atherosclerosis defined as carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and as the risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI).
