A liver protein is linked to coronary artery disease risk
In an analysis of 278 patients with heart disease and biobank data, genetic regulation of a liver-derived protein was associated with higher artery disease risk.In an analysis of 278 patients with heart disease and biobank data, genetic regulation of a liver-derived protein was associated with higher artery disease risk.
