Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: We determined the frequencies of apolipoprotein E (apo E) alleles and examined the effect of apo E polymorphism on lipoprotein particle sizes in Serbian healthy, middle-aged individuals. DESIGN AND METHODS: We performed apo E phenotype by immunobloting method in 183 men and 143 women (mean years: 56.3+/-10.60 and 54.9+/-10.31, respectively). Plasma lipid and apolipoprotein levels were measured by...
