Abstract excerpt
The aim of the present study was to search for genetic determinants of combined hyperlipidemia and hypertriglyceridemia, and to evaluate whether such determinants might be associated with predisposition to atherosclerosis. Four DNA polymorphisms in the apo AI-CIII-AIV gene cluster (G to A mutatio...
