Background-We examined the association of 3 polymorphisms in the lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor-1 (LOX1 or OLR1) gene with coronary artery disease in the Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation (WISE) study population.Methods and Results-The WISE sample comprised 589 white and 122 black women who underwent angiography for suspected ischemia. The sample was divided into 3 groups: = 50% stenosis (35.3%). The three LOX1 polymorphisms (intron 4/G-->A, intron 5/T-->G, and 3' UTR/T-->C) were in linkage disequilibrium and thus behaved as a single polymorphism. The frequency of the 3' UTR/T allele was significantly higher in whites than blacks (49% versus 19%; P
