Sortilin and lipoprotein metabolism: making sense out of complexity.

Current opinion in lipidology - 1 Oct 2014

Strong Alanna, Patel Kevin, Rader Daniel J

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Genome-wide association studies have been used as an unbiased tool to identify novel genes that contribute to variations in LDL cholesterol levels in the hopes of uncovering new biology and new therapeutic targets for the treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The locus identified by genome-wide association studies with the strongest association with LDL cholesterol and...
