Common variation in the CETP gene and the implications for cardiovascular disease and its treatment: an updated analysis.

Pharmacogenomics - 1 Jun 2008

Dullaart Robin P F, Sluiter Wim J

Abstract excerpt

Human plasma contains cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) which, besides other functions, enables the transfer of cholesteryl esters in plasma from high-density lipoproteins (HDL) towards triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, thereby contributing to lower HDL cholesterol. Variations in the CETP gene, including the intronic TaqIB polymorphism (rs708272), are common in the population. Although HDL cholesterol is...
