Although no significant association between SELP S290N/N562D/V599L/T715P haplotypes and adult ischemic stroke was identified in Caucasian population (34), the present study revealed an increased presence of the NDVT haplotype in children with AIS and PAIS, but not in children with CAIS and CSVT, pointing to its possible role in the etiology of PAIS only. Here, SELP is linked to androgen insensitivity syndrome.
