Genetic Diagnosis via Whole Exome Sequencing in Taiwanese Patients with Hypertriglyceridemia.

Abstract excerpt

AIM: Whole exome sequencing (WES) is a recently developed method for discovering rare mutations associated with hereditary disorders. However, the feasibility and utilization of this method in identifying familial hypertriglyceridemia is not well known. The purpose of the study was to identify the genetic locus that causes hypertriglyceridemia and assess its prevalence in Taiwanese subjects with...
