Abstract excerpt
Apolipoprotein E phenotypes and gene frequencies were determined in 560 patients receiving long-term hemodialysis. In addition, fasting plasma lipid- and apolipoprotein-concentrations were evaluated in 245 of these individuals. The distribution of the three major apolipoprotein E alleles (epsilon 4, epsilon 3, and epsilon 2) and that of the six common apolipoprotein E phenotypes (E4/4, E3/3, E2/2, E4/2, E4/3, and...
