Two novel missense mutations in the CETP gene in Japanese hyperalphalipoproteinemic subjects: High-throughput assay by Invader® assay

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) deficiency is one of the most important and common causes of hyperalphalipoproteinemia (HALP) in the Japanese. CETP deficiency is thought to be a state of impaired reverse cholesterol transport, which may possibly lead to the development of atherosclerotic c...
