Common genetic loci influencing plasma homocysteine concentrations and their effect on risk of coronary artery disease.

BACKGROUND: The strong observational association between total homocysteine (tHcy) concentrations and risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and the null associations in the homocysteine-lowering trials have prompted the need to identify genetic variants associated with homocysteine concentrations an...
