Microsatellite Polymorphism in the Heme Oxygenase-1 Gene Promoter and the Risk of Atrial Fibrillation in Taiwanese

BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with increased oxidative stress. Emerging evidence suggests that heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a potent antioxidant system against various oxidative stress-related diseases. The human HO-1 promoter has a GT-repeat length polymorphism that can determine...
