Polygenic contribution for familial hypercholesterolemia (FH).

Current opinion in lipidology - 1 Dec 2021

Medeiros Ana Margarida, Bourbon Mafalda

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The present review summarizes different polygenic risk scores associated with hypercholesterolemia applied to cohorts with a genetic diagnosis of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH). RECENT FINDINGS: Several single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with increased levels of LDL-C or Lp(a) have been genotyped in population cohorts with FH phenotype, to identify the cause of hypercholesterolemia...
