TaqI B1/B2 and -629A/C cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene polymorphisms and their association with CETP activity and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in a Tehranian population. Part of the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS)

We examined the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene TaqI intron 1 B1/B2 polymorphism and the -629A/C CETP promoter polymorphism in respect to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in a healthy Iranian population taken from the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study (TLGS). The relationship...
