Strong Linkage Disequilibrium and Association of -1131T>C and c.553G>T Polymorphisms of the Apolipoprotein A5 Gene With Hypertriglyceridemia in a Japanese Population
1 Jan 2007
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The apolipoprotein A5 gene (ApoA5) plays an important role in modulating triglyceride metabolism. Polymorphisms of ApoA5, including -1131T>C and c.553G>T (G185C), have been reported to correlate with hypertriglyceridemia (HTG). In the present study the relationships of 5 single nucleotide polymorphisms, including the -1131T>C, c.56C>G, IVS3+476G>A, c.553G>T, and c.1259T>C polymorphisms of ApoA5, with...
