Abstract excerpt
The opposing effects of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) Serin447Stop (S447X) polymorphism and hepatic lipase (HL) C-514T polymorphism on serum triglyceride (TG) levels have been known. However, little is known about the interaction effect of these 2 functional gene variants on serum triglyceride levels. This aspect was examined in a community-based sample of 902 whites and 389 blacks aged 18 to 41 years, using a...
