The aim of this study was the assessment of the association of human insulin receptor gene Nsil polymorphism with myocardial infarction in 100 patients and 140 healthy individuals. The polymorphism was studied using polymerase chain reaction. An association was found between N2 allele and myocardial infarction, particularly in patients with normal body weight and/or with positive family history.
