An association between rs1466535 low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) gene polymorphism and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) was recently demonstrated.

Abstract

An association between rs1466535 low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) gene polymorphism and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) was recently demonstrated. It has not yet been defined if this association is specific for AAA or related to atherosclerosis per se. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the role of the rs1466535 polymorphism in conferring genetic susceptibility for carotid artery stenosis (CAS).
