Association between OLR1 K167N SNP and intima media thickness of the common carotid artery in the general population.

<h4>Background and purpose</h4>The lectin-like oxidised LDL receptor-1 (OLR1) gene encodes a scavenger receptor implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Although functional roles have been suggested for two variants, epidemiological studies on OLR1 have been inconsistent.<h4...
