Abstract excerpt
We examined allele frequencies for the common cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) TaqI polymorphisms and the associations of CETP-TaqI polymorphisms with serum lipid and lipoprotein levels taking into account for selected lifestyle factors in a well-characterized random sample of 527 healthy subjects living a rural community in Japan (256 men and 271 women aged 40-69 years). B2 allele frequency was 0.39 in...
