Abstract excerpt
AIMS: This study was designed to determine whether the polymorphism of apolipoprotein E (apoE), one of the key regulatory proteins in cholesterol metabolism, is related to varying susceptibility to central nervous system (CNS) neoplasms, and to evaluate any possible interaction between this polymorphism and tumor cell proliferation or clinical outcome.
