Abstract excerpt

Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) plays a critical role in the assembly of lipoproteins. Therefore, we studied whether MTP gene polymorphisms are associated with atherosclerosis-promoting parameters, especially metabolic profiles and endothelial function, in healthy young men. One hundred one healthy men (mean age, 30.3 years) were studied. We analyzed the 2 promoter polymorphisms (-493G/T and...
