Abstract excerpt

Apolipoprotein B (apoB) is the sole protein component of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and is thought to play an important role in atherogenesis. We performed a meta-analysis of the associations between the three most frequently investigated polymorphisms (XbaI, signal peptide insertion/deletion, EcoRI) in the apolipoprotein B (APOB) gene, lipid parameters, and the risk of ischemic heart disease (IHD). We...
