Common genetic variation in multiple metabolic pathways influences susceptibility to low HDL-cholesterol and coronary heart disease[S]

Common genetic variation in multiple metabolic pathways influences susceptibility to low HDL-cholesterol and coronary heart disease[S]

A low level of HDL-C is the most common plasma lipid abnormality observed in men with established coronary heart disease (CHD). To identify allelic variants associated with susceptibility to low HDL-C and CHD, we examined 60 candidate genes with key roles in HDL metabolism, insulin resistance, and i...
