One study measuring laminin levels in patients following acute MI revealed that laminin levels were significantly higher compared to patients with stable coronary artery disease (CAD) (36.5 vs. 23.9 ng/mL) or without CAD (36.5 vs. 24.6 ng/mL), suggesting that they play a role in the post-infarct remodeling process [71]. The gene discussed is LAMB2; the disease is coronary artery disorder.
