Additionally, CD40, F11R, TNRC18, and calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II gamma (CAMK2G) were screened out and validated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in an independent patient cohort and immunohistochemical (IHC) staining in an atherosclerosis mouse model. This evidence concerns the gene CAMK2G and atherosclerosis.
