Genetic markers associated with high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels in a biracial population sample.

Genetic epidemiology - 1 Jan 1992

Anderson R A, Burns T L, Wallace R B, Folsom A R, Sprafka J M

Abstract excerpt

An explanation for the consistently documented finding of higher levels of high density lipoprotein-cholesterol in black men relative to white men was sought by comparing the frequency of restriction fragment length polymorphism markers present in blacks and in whites at the gene loci coding for the two major apolipoprotein constituents of high density lipoprotein, apolipoproteins AI and AII. The measurements...
