Abstract excerpt
Studies on monozygotic twins support a role for genetic determinants of plasma lipid, lipoprotein, and apolipoprotein levels. Gene variants of the enzyme lipoprotein lipase have been shown to associate with dyslipidemia and coronary artery disease. We assessed the gene-environment interaction by investigating the relationship between the lipoprotein lipase gene and plasma lipid, lipoprotein, and apolipoprotein...
