Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Polymorphisms for the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTTP) gene have been associated with longevity and with lower risk for cardiovascular mortality. However, the association of MTTP with longevity has been contested in a large German collection of nonagenarians and centenarians. METHODS: We made a detailed characterization of MTTP haplotype carrier status in a cohort of 1398 old men and...
