Objective: Besides its effects on glucose and lipid metabolism, the Wnt pathway has been increasingly implicated in the regulation of proliferation, migration and survival of vascular cells. In addition, defective Wnt signaling has been identified in a family with autosomal dominant early coronary artery disease. The aim of this study was to investigate whether premature coronary artery disease is associated with features of decreased Wnt signaling.Methods and results: We prospectively enrolled 100 consecutive young survivors of myocardial infarction (MI
