G-protein beta 3 subunit polymorphism C1429T and low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 polymorphism A1330V are risk factors for hypercholesterolemia in Japanese males--a prospective study over 5 years.

Abstract excerpt

We examined the relationship between the C825T, C1429T, and A-350G variants in the G-protein beta 3 subunit (GNB3) gene, the A1330V and Q89R variants in the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5) gene, and the risk of hypercholesterolemia in a prospective study in Japanese workers. This study included observations over a 5-year period from 1997 to 2002 on 936 males and 662 females who were not...
