Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Studies have shown that selective modulator of estrogen receptor raloxifene, exerts hypolipemic properties at least partially through estrogen receptor alpha activation. To test the hypothesis that polymorphisms of estrogen receptor alpha are associated with the influence of 6 months raloxifene treatment on serum lipids, two intronic (PvuII and XbaI), and one exonic polymorphism (P325P) were analyzed...
