Single nucleotide polymorphisms have been found in several genes related to inflammation and ischemic stroke [168]; these polymorphisms include the following: IL-1β [169], IL-6 [170], IL-10 [171], MMP-2 [172], MMP-9 [173], MMP-12 [174], E-selectin [175], L-selectin [176], CD36 [177], PCSK9 [178], and adiponectin [179]. This evidence concerns the gene IL6 and ischemic stroke.
