8 proteins, namely, SDHA, UQCRC1, NDUFA6, NDUFS4, NDUFA10, NDUFA4, NDUFV1, UQCRB, UQCRC2, and UQCRC1, which are important components of the respiratory chain Complex I/II/III, were dramatically downregulated in EAT of CAD patients, suggesting decreased mitochondrial function. The gene discussed is SDHA; the disease is coronary artery disorder.
