OBJECTIVES: The purpose of the present study was to identify gene polymorphisms that
confer susceptibility to restenosis after bare-metal stenting of coronary arteries, and thereby
to predict the genetic risk for this condition. METHODS AND RESULTS: The study
population comprised 461 unrelated Japanese individuals (350 men, 111 women) who
underwent stent implantation, including 107 subjects who developed in-stent restenosis and
354 subjects without this condition. The genotypes for 142 polymorphisms of 121 candidate …
