Abstract excerpt
Apolipoprotein H (apoH, also named beta-2 glycoprotein I) is found on several classes of lipoproteins, and is involved in the activation of lipoprotein lipase in lipid metabolism. We have comprehensively investigated the association of variation in the apoH gene (APOH) with lipid traits in hepatic cholesterol transport, dietary cholesterol transport (DCT), and reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). Our study...
