Genome-wide search for new genes controlling plasma lipid concentrations in mice and humans
11 Mar 2005
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Quantitative trait locus analysis has been used in both humans and mice for the purpose of finding new genes regulating plasma lipid levels. We review these methods and discuss new approaches that can help find quantitative trait locus genes. RECENT FINDINGS: Many quantitative trait loci have been found that regulate plasma levels for HDL cholesterol (37 in mice and 30 in humans), LDL...
