[Molecular genetics of cholesterol cholelithiasis: identification of human and murine gallstone genes].

Zeitschrift fur Gastroenterologie - 1 Jun 2002

Figge A, Matern S, Lammert F

Abstract excerpt

Cholesterol cholelithiasis is one of the most common gastroenterological diseases in Western countries. It is a polygenic disease resulting from disturbed biliary cholesterol homeostasis. Association studies identified six human gallstone candidate genes. Polymorphisms in the genes encoding the apolipoproteins B and E, phospholipid flippase ( ABCB4), cholesterol ester transfer protein ( CETP),...
