Abstract excerpt
We studied the association between high (HDL) and low-density (LDL) cholesterol concentrations and family-derived haplotypes based on six common SNPs in the cholesteryl-ester transfer protein (CETP) gene. We based our analysis on 201 founders from families recruited throughout Germany. The analysis revealed one subhaplotype block with complete, pairwise, linkage disequilibrium between 5 SNPs located in the...
