SERPINE1 and Stroke: We utilized the amplification refractory mutation system-PCR to genotype the chromosome 9p21 locus, the long noncoding RNA-ANRIL (lncRNA-ANRIL), Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 1 alpha (HNF1α-A > C [p.I27L]) gene, and the plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) gene to investigate the association of these gene variations with a stroke.
