PLA2G4A and myocardial infarction: The rs12746200 polymorphism has been also associated with a diminished risk of myocardial infarction in patients with coronary artery disease (Hartiala et al., 2011), an association which was further replicated and which appears to be modulated by dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids, with minor allele carriers showing a significantly lower PLA2G4A gene expression (Hartiala et al., 2012).
