Abstract excerpt
Apolipoprotein B (apoB) signal peptide (sp) polymorphism was characterized by polymerase chain reaction in blood samples of 58 coronary artery disease (CAD) patients and 319 control individuals of Chinese Han ethnic origin in Taiwan. In the CAD group, 77% of the observed alleles were sp27 (sp wit...
