Abstract excerpt
Serum lipid responses to dietary modification are partly determined by genetic factors. The objective of the present study was to investigate the influence of the Pro12Ala polymorphism of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma2 (PPAR-gamma2) gene on serum lipid and lipoprotein responses to n-3 fatty acid supplementation. A total of 76 men and 74 women (age 49+/-8 years, body mass index 26.5+/-3.0...
