Association of variation in hepatic lipase activity with promoter variation in the hepatic lipase gene. The LOCAT Study Invsestigators.
1 Mar 1998
Abstract excerpt
The associations between six genetic polymorphisms in the hepatic lipase (HL) gene (LIPC) and variation in postheparin HL activity and fasting serum lipoproteins were evaluated in 395 male Finnish coronary heart disease patients with HDL cholesterol concentrations </= 1.1 mmol/liter. The LIPC promoter polymorphism at position -514 was highly significantly associated with variation in HL activity (P = 0.0000008),...
