To this respect, seven different single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), situated within intron 4 (rs3736232 G>C; rs3736234 C>T; rs3736235 A>G), intron 5 (rs17174597 A>G; rs13306593 G>T) and the 3′ UTR (rs1050283 C>T) of OLR1 gene (Table 1) are located in a linkage disequilibrium (LD) block strongly associated with an elevated risk to develop coronary arteries disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction (MI) [153,154,155]. This evidence concerns the gene OLR1 and myocardial infarction.
