Abstract excerpt
Obesity is commonly associated with high rates of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Weight loss in obese subjects reduces risk factors for CVD but this response is not uniform. Genetic factors could be involved in this variability. The 360His polymorphism of apolipoproteinA-IV (apoA-IV) influences the lipid response to fat intake, but it is unclear whether this polymorphism could contribute to lipid variability...
