Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Some RFLPs for the genes encoding for apoproteins have been associated with dyslipidemia and the predisposition to atherosclerosis. It is of interest to investigate the apo A-I gene in a Mediterranean population, since it is the major protein in HDL. METHODS: We studied the A-I C-III...
