Monocyte chemoattractant protein -1 (MCP) activate and recruits moncyte into atherosclerotic plaque . A single nudeotide pdymonphism in the MCP -1 gene prometor (2518 A\G ) results in greater production of MCP -1 protein . In our study investigated 30 patients with MI and 25 normal age and sex matched control



2518 A\G polymorphism of MCP -1 Monocyte chemoattractant protein -1 (MCP) Myocardial infarction (MI )
