Abstract excerpt

Dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS) is an adrenal steroid which has been inversely associated with development of atherosclerosis. We estimated heritability of serum DHEAS levels in 564 related Mexican Americans. We found a significant heritability for DHEAS (h2 = 0.39, p < 0.001). Measures of alcohol consumption, reproductive status, body composition, and HDL3 levels showed significant relationships with...
