Abstract excerpt
The aim of this study is to assess whether genetic variation at the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene is related to fasting triglyceride levels or to the presence of vascular disease. Hypertriglyceridaemic patients are genotyped for the N291S, G188E, and P207L variants and the HindIII and PvuII restriction fragment length polymorphisms of the LPL gene. Sequence analysis is carried out on exons 1-9 of the LPL gene for...
