Degree of stenosis is not the only factor affecting symptomatology of an atherosclerotic carotid artery [ 77 ] , and important differences between intracranial and cervical arteries in the genetics of atherosclerosis may go unrecognized if the object of study is cervical carotid atherosclerosis [ 78 ] .
Results were classified as positive or negative according to whether a significant association ( P < 0.05) was found between stroke (or carotid atherosclerosis) and a polymorphism.
For example, the skill levels of surgeons in trials of carotid endarterectomy may be greater than those across the surgical community as a whole.
Our prior studies showed that increases in cGMP by nitrovasodilators and cAMP by forskolin increase ser 16-HSP20 phosphorylation and induce force suppression [ 8 ] . Such results suggest that the correlation between ser 16-HSP20 phosphorylation and force suppression is robust in the swine carotid stimulated with 10 μM histamine.
Cyclic nucleotide induced relaxation is associated with phosphorylation of heat shock protein 20 (also known as HSP20 or P20) on serine 16 [ 10 11 12 ] . More recently, ser 16-HSP20 phosphorylation was shown to specifically and temporally correlate with "force suppression" rather than the "deactivation" form of relaxation [ 8 10 ] . A region of HSP20 (residues 110-121) has sequence homology with troponin I; peptides from this region bound thin filaments, reduced actin activated myosin S1 ATPase activity, and relaxed skinned swine carotid artery [ 10 ] . We hypothesized that binding of ser 16-phosphorylated HSP20 to the thin filament may "turn off" thin filaments so that phosphorylated myosin does not interact with the thin filament (i.e.
