Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an enzyme that transforms low-density lipoprotein into atherogenic particles. The MPO gene has a promoter polymorphism at position −463, which affects gene transcription and leads to high- (G/G) and low-expression (A/A, A/G) genotypes. To determine if these genotypes are associated with the severity of atherosclerosis, we p...
