Genetic association of five apolipoprotein polymorphisms with serum lipoprotein-lipid levels in African blacks.

Genetic epidemiology - 1 Jan 1999

Kamboh M I, Bunker C H, Aston C E, Nestlerode C S, McAllister A E, Ukoli F A

Abstract excerpt

Genetic studies carried out mainly in European and European-derived populations have shown that common polymorphisms in genes coding for apolipoproteins are significant determinants of serum lipoprotein-lipid levels variation. However, except for a few sporadic studies, the distribution of apolipoprotein polymorphisms and their association with serum lipoprotein-lipid levels have not been evaluated systematically...
