An association study between catalase -262C>T gene polymorphism, sodium-lithium countertransport activity, insulin resistance, blood lipid parameters and their response to atorvastatin, in Greek dyslipidaemic patients and normolipidaemic controls.

Abstract excerpt

This study attempted to examine the effect of a functional catalase gene polymorphism, CAT -262C>T, on sodium-lithium countertransport (Na-Li CT) activity, insulin resistance determined as the homeostasis model assessment index (HOMA-IR), blood lipid parameters (cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, apolipoprotein A-I) and their...
