Abstract:
Stroke is an important public health problem both in China and worldwide.Stroke genetics research has made great progress in recent years, especially the genome-wide association study (GWAS) and the emergence of epigenetics, has brought a breakthrough in this field. They studied the pathogenesis of stroke from the genetic level and the environmental factor levels. Although there are still many problems to be solved, the prospect of stroke genetics is bright.
