Abstract
There is a low frequency of the stromelysin-1 promoter 5A allele in the Chinese population in Taiwan. How stromelysin-1 5A/6A polymorphism affects ISR appears to be linked to angina status. These results merit further study to identify patients carrying genotypes which put them at increased risk of ISR, and which matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors or drug-eluting stents are more effective for those at risk.
