Objective: Intelectin-1 is an anti-inflammatory adipokine encoded by the Intelectin 1 (ITLN1) gene. Genetic variations in the ITLN1 gene affect the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD) and related CAD risk factors. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether the ITLN1 gene Val109Asp polymorphism has an effect on the severity of CAD and serum lipid levels in both men and women.
