Abstract excerpt
We previously showed that polymorphisms in the tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha gene, which is regulated by nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB), modify the association between dietary polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) intake and circulating HDL-cholesterol. Our objective was to determine whether a common polymorphism in the NFKB1 gene (-94Ins/Del ATTG) interacts with PUFA intake to affect HDL-cholesterol in two...
