- Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a multifactorial polygenic disease. It develops because of the complex interaction between many environmental and genetic factors. In this paper, we have studied associations of MI and allele combinations of 17 polymorphic markers of immune response genes in an ethnically homogeneous group of Tatars. The material for analysis was DNA samples of patients (286 men) with onset of MI at the age of 30 to 60 years and 301 essentially healthy men of the control group. Using the APSampler algorithm, we obtained allele combinations with the increased risk of MI in which allele variants <italic>CX3CR1</italic>*M (rs3732378), <italic>VCAM1</italic>*C (rs3917010), <italic>ICAM1</italic>*E (rs5498), <italic>LTA</italic>*A (rs909253), and <italic>TNFRSF1B</italic>*M (rs1061622) occurred the most often.
