Two types of genes involved in myocardial infarction

Scientists at the University of California, USA have found two genes related to myocardial infarction after conducting research on 2000 patients.

Two genes discovered by scientists at the University of California, USA named VAMP8 and HNRPUL1.

The known VAMP8 gene is involved in the early stages of clot formation, if this process occurs in the heart it will clog oxygen and cause a heart attack.

The gene HNRPUL1 is closely related to the cause of myocardial infarction. But the nature of this gene association is still unclear.

According to scientists from universities around the world such as California, San Francisco, Cleveland Clinic, Case Western Reserve and Brigham Young who have these two genes are at risk of double myocardial infarction. .

Professor John Kane, of the University of California, author of the study, said the discovery of these two genes involved in myocardial infarction would create a turning point in diagnosing the disease and can predict which patients are at high risk for heart attack.

The aim of this study is for researchers to determine the differences of genetics. Since then, scientists can predict people with heart disease.
