ABSTRACT:
The invention provides methods and materials for diagnosing an angina condition in a patient. Specifically, the invention provides methods and materials for classifying an angina condition as either stable or unstable. In addition, the invention provides methods and materials for determining an individual's predisposition to have a stable or unstable angina condition. The invention also provides kits for classifying an angina condition as either stable or unstable as well as kits for determining an individual's predisposition to have a stable or unstable angina condition.
