Abstract excerpt
Lipodystrophy in HIV-infected patients (LDHIV) includes morphological and metabolic abnormalities, including lipid and glucose metabolism. ApoE plays a role in the transport and clearance of lipoprotein. In the general population, ApoE 112 (rs429358) and 158 (rs7412) polymorphisms were linked to severe dyslipidemia. Therefore, we investigated ApoE polymorphism using PCR-RFLP in 200 HIV patients (100 with...
