Abstract excerpt
There is interindividual variation in plasma lipid response to dietary changes. The polymorphisms which are associated with plasma lipid levels could possibly explain part of this variation. Therefore, the apolipoprotein B (apo B) signal peptide insertion/deletion (ins/del) and XbaI restriction f...
