Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to examine the impact of the leucine7 to proline7 (Leu7Pro) polymorphism of the NPY gene on postprandial (PP) lipemia, post-heparin plasma lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and hepatic lipase (HL) activities, and the response of serum lipids to a reduced fat diet. DESIGN AND SUBJECTS: Seven middle-aged obese subjects with Leu7Pro genotype were matched with seven subjects with Leu7Leu...
