Apolipoprotein E and lipoprotein lipase gene polymorphisms interaction on the atherogenic combined expression of hypertriglyceridemia and hyperapobetalipoproteinemia phenotypes.

Abstract excerpt

The combination of hypertriglyceridemia (hyperTG) and hyperapobetalipoproteinemia (hyperapoB) is associated with an increased coronary artery disease (CAD) risk. Apolipoprotein (apo) E and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) genes are involved in the catabolism of triglycerides (TG)-rich apoB-containing lip...
