Variants at the APOE/C1/C2/C4 Locus Modulate Cholesterol Efflux Capacity Independently of High‐Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol

21 Aug 2018

Abstract excerpt

Background Macrophage cholesterol efflux to high‐density lipoproteins ( HDLs ) is the first step of reverse cholesterol transport. The cholesterol efflux capacity ( CEC ) of HDL particles is a protective risk factor for coronary artery disease independent of HDL cholesterol levels. Using a genome‐wide association study approach, we aimed to identify pathways that regulate CEC in humans. Methods and Results We...
