Abstract excerpt
We have performed exome-wide association studies to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms that influence serum concentrations of triglycerides, high density lipoprotein (HDL)-cholesterol, or low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol or confer susceptibility to hypertriglyceridemia, hypo-HDL-cholesterolemia, or hyper-LDL-cholesterolemia in Japanese. Exome-wide association studies for serum triglycerides (13,414...
