Abstract excerpt

The genetic variation at the Apolipoprotein E locus (APOE) is an important determinant of plasma lipids and has been implicated in various human pathological conditions. The objective of the present study was to estimate the distribution of APOE alleles in five Venezuelan communities: two Amerindian tribes (Bari and Yucpa), one Negroid population from Curiepe, one Caucasoid population from Colonia Tovar and the...
