Lipoprotein lipase gene variants: Association with acute myocardial infarction and lipid profiles

Lipoprotein lipase gene variants: Association with acute myocardial infarction and lipid profiles

Background: Studies showed that lipid metabolism disorders are significant risk factors for myocardial infarction and coronary artery disease (CAD). Therefore, genes involved in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism pathways such as lipoprotein lipase (LPL), are proper candidates for susceptibility to CA...
