Abstract excerpt
Recent research has demonstrated a strong genetic linkage between premature coronary artery disease (pCAD) and dyslipidemia. Genetic variation in lipid metabolism can lead to impediment of lipid anabolism and catabolism, which promotes vascular arterosclerogenesis. Currently, related studies were focused on: (1) Gene mutations related to low density lipoprotein metabolism, such as low density lipoprotein...
