Study of FCN1 promoter polymorphisms in rheumatic fever (RF) and rheumatic heart disease (RHD) patient revealed that minor FCN1 promoter variants may play a protective role against RF, by encouraging bacteria elimination as well as increasing gene expression and protein levels. On the other hand, they may also predispose the patients to RHD symptoms thus emphasizing the dual importance of ficolin-1 in both conditions. | Sickening or Healing the Heart?
