## Abstract ## Objective To evaluate the relationship between polymorphisms in the gene coding for mannoseβbinding lectin (MBL) and the occurrence of coronary artery lesions (CALs) among different age groups of patients with Kawasaki disease. ## Methods The frequencies of the genotypes, defined
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP or NPPA) is the precursor protein of the form of amyloidosis called isolated atrial amyloid (IAA), which is related to the increased incidence of cardiac pathological conditions with age. Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) patients are characterized by high concentrat
