Abstract excerpt
Genetic variants within the BUD13-APOA5 gene region are known to be associated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and triglyceride (TG) levels. Recent studies suggest that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within this region affect HDL-C response to statin-fibrate combination therapy and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) response to statin therapy. We hypothesized that SNPs within...
