The Taq1B-variant in the cholesteryl ester-transfer protein gene and the risk of metabolic syndrome.

Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.) - 1 Apr 2008

Abstract excerpt

The metabolic syndrome is associated with low high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) and decreased low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particle size. The Taq1B-polymorphism in the cholesteryl ester-transfer protein (CETP)-gene influences HDL-C, CETP concentration, and LDL-size. We investigated the effect of the Taq1B-polymorphism on the risk of the metabolic syndrome in 1,503 participants (973 men, 530 women) of...
