Association of polymorphic variants of the gene VKORC 1 with ischemic atherothrombotic stroke

Abstract

Annually Stroke affects 16 million people and causes the death of nearly 6 million. 88% of all strokes account for ischemic stroke genesis. Disorders in processes of hemostasis and ectopic calcification play the important role in ischemic atherothrombotic stroke development. Today distinguished the group of vitamin K-dependent proteins that includes proteins, which provide hemostasis and proteins that have anticalcifications properties.
