[Familial hypercholesterolemia and mutations of the gene for low-density lipoproteins in Italy].

Annali dell'Istituto superiore di sanita - 1 Jan 1999

Cantafora A, Bertolini S, Calandra S

Abstract excerpt

The review takes into account molecular bases and major implications for public health in our country of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) caused by mutations in LDL receptor (LDLR) gene. The relevance of the problem is evidenced by the fact that (a) about 120,000 Italians affected by heterozygo...
