Genetic factors contribute to about a half of coronary artery diseases. During the last several decades, some studies suggested that non-O blood group and thrombomodulin polymorphism −33G>A are the risk factors of coronary artery disease especially in Asia. There was no prior study in Indonesia regarding this issue. Hence, this study was designed to investigate the correlation of ABO polymorphism and thrombomodulin polymorphism −33G>A with the incidence of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). A total of 192 subjects were enrolled in this case control study. AMI patients were diagnosed based on World Health Organization criteria. Healthy patients were subjects with AMI risk factor without any sign and symptoms of AMI. Patients with diabetes mellitus, cancer, and arrhythmia were excluded from this study. Genotyping for both polymorphisms was performed by PCR RFLP methods. The result of this study suggested that ABO polymorphism and thrombomodulin polymorphism −33G>A were not risk factors of AMI, p=0.727 and p=0.699, respectively. Furthermore, the analysis to identify the synergy of these polymorphisms failed to prove their correlation with AMI (p=0.118). Conclusively, this study showed that ABO polymorphism and thrombomodulin polymorphism −33G>A were not risk factors of AMI.
