Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods based on genetic polymorphisms that are associated with response to statin treatment, particularly for reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease, especially coronary heart disease (such as myocardial infarction) and stroke. For example, the present invention relates to nucleic acid molecules containing the polymorphisms, variant proteins encoded by these nucleic acid molecules, reagents and kits for detecting the polymorphic nucleic acid molecules and variant proteins, and methods of using the nucleic acid molecules and proteins as well as methods of using reagents and kits for their detection.

Abstract: This invention relates to nucleotide polymorphisms in the human Apo(a) gene and to the use of Apo(a) nucleotide polymorphisms in identifying whether a human subject will respond or not to treatment with acetylsalicylic acid.
