The ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 R230C Variant Affects HDL Cholesterol Levels and BMI in the Mexican Population

27 Jun 2007

Abstract excerpt

Although ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is well known for its role in cholesterol efflux and HDL formation, it is expressed in various tissues, where it may have different functions. Because hypoalphalipoproteinemia is highly prevalent in Mexico, we screened the ABCA1 coding sequence in Mexican individuals with low and high HDL cholesterol levels to seek functional variants. A highly frequent...
