Abstract excerpt
A number of genetic variants have been identified in the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene. We aimed to investigate the possible associations between LPL gene and apolipoprotein C3 (APOC3) gene polymorphisms with coronary artery disease (CAD) and its severity, as well as the interaction between these polymorphisms and classical risk factors. The HindIII variant of LPL and APOC3 were genotyped in 156 CAD patients and...
