| Abstract | Cytochrome P450 2C8 is a polymorphic enzyme responsible for the biosynthesis of vasoactive substances from arachidonic acid. Inter-individual differences in the action of these substances might be important in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases such as acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In the present study we analyzed the association of a genetic variant in CYP2C8 and the morbidity of AMI in Bulgarian population. The study included 99 AMI patients and 370 control subjects. To determine the genotypes of the samples real time PCR with predesigned TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays (Applied Biosystem) was used. The rare allele (C) was found in 16% of the affected and 10% of the non affected cases and it showed statistical significance [OR (95% CI): 1.64 (1.00−2.56), P = 0.03]. The TT genotype occurred more often in the control group compared with the patients with AMI [OR (95% CI): 0.58 (0.35−0.96), P = 0.039]. The heterozygous genotype of CYP2C8 was found to be significantly associated with a risk of myocardial infarction [OR (95% CI): 2.25 (1.06−4.75), P = 0.036] in women. Possession of the rare genetic variant of CYP2C8 gene in Bulgarian population is associated with a modestly increased risk of AMI. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
