A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin motifs 7 (ADAMTS7) plays a critical role in atherosclerosis by degrading the extracellular matrix and modulating smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation, migration, and phenotypic transformation. This study investigated the association between the ADAMTS7 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) …
