Abstract excerpt
This study is aimed at investigating the correlations of PCSK9 and LDLR gene polymorphisms as well as serum proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) levels with atherosclerosis and lipid metabolism in patients on maintenance hemodialysis (HD). A single nucleotide polymorphism at the E670G locus of the PCSK9 gene and the rs688 locus of the LDLR gene was analyzed by polymerase chain...
