Abstract excerpt
Two common coding sequence mutations of lipoprotein lipase (serine447-ter, producing a carboxy terminal truncation; and asp9-asn variants) were studied in 329 Caucasian subjects, of whom 243 had angiographic features of premature atheroscelerosis (220 with coronary artery disease; 23 with coronary and peripheral artery disease). As expected, the mean levels of cholesterol, triglycerides, LDL-cholesterol, ApoB and...
