Stanford University scientists announced on the 7th that they have discovered 13 new gene regions related to atherosclerosis, making the number of gene regions related to the disease increased to 26. The researchers say their findings are based on the analysis of 14 genetic research data collected by more than 150 researchers from all over the world, including the United States, Iceland, Canada and the United Kingdom.
Arteriosclerosis is one of the main risk factors for heart disease. To understand the effect of genes on atherosclerosis, the researchers analyzed the genetic maps of 22,000 heart disease patients in Europe and compared their maps with those of 60,000 healthy people. After carefully checking the genetic code, 13 new gene regions related to atherosclerosis were finally found.
Kate Moose, a professor of cardiovascular medicine at Stanford University, said in a press release that the new findings will help scientists find the root cause of atherosclerosis and develop new drugs that reduce the risk of heart disease.
According to the study ’s co-author and medical professor Asimis, based on this information, doctors can detect high-risk patients who may have heart disease at an early stage and take corresponding measures, such as recommending patients to change their lifestyles or drug interventions. Reduce the risk of heart disease.
